An attack on your thyroid causes inflammation and damage to the thyroid cells, leading to thyroiditis. There are several types of it, and each has a different cause. An autoimmune disease is the most common cause, which occurs when your immune system attacks your body instead of protecting it. It is unclear why your immune system behaves this way. The majority of thyroiditis is caused by antibodies attacking your thyroid. Thyroiditis treatment is available at The Thyroid Place.
