Heavy metal toxicity, characterised by an accumulation of harmful elements like mercury, lead, and cadmium, has been linked to hypothyroidism, a condition where the thyroid gland functions inadequately. 

These heavy metals can disrupt thyroid hormone production by interfering with the uptake of essential iodine, a key component for hormone synthesis. Heavy metal exposure can also trigger oxidative stress and inflammation, further exacerbating thyroid dysfunction. Understanding the intricate relationship between heavy metal toxicity and hypothyroidism is crucial for adopting preventive measures and promoting overall thyroid health.
