Let's get to know the thyroid.

2/18 Edited to

... Read moreหลายคนทักมาถามว่า “ต่อมไทรอยด์อยู่ตรงไหน” และ “ต่อมไทรอยด์ทำหน้าที่อะไร” เลยขอสรุปให้แบบอ่านจบแล้วนึกภาพออกค่ะ ต่อมไทรอยด์ (Thyroid gland) เป็นอวัยวะขนาดเล็กบริเวณ “คอด้านหน้า” อยู่หน้าหลอดลม ตำแหน่งประมาณต่ำกว่าลูกกระเดือกลงมานิดหน่อย รูปร่างคล้ายผีเสื้อมี 2 กลีบเชื่อมกันตรงกลาง หน้าที่หลักคือสร้าง “ไทรอยด์ฮอร์โมน” (T3/T4) ที่ช่วยควบคุมการเผาผลาญอาหาร พลังงานที่ร่างกายใช้ในแต่ละวัน ระดับอุณหภูมิของร่างกาย ระดับไขมันในเลือด รวมถึงมีผลกับอารมณ์และความรู้สึกด้วย ความผิดปกติหลัก ๆ ที่เจอได้บ่อยมี 2 แบบ 1) ฮอร์โมนไทรอยด์เกิน (ไทรอยด์เป็นพิษ) สิ่งที่หลายคนสังเกตได้คือ ใจสั่น หัวใจเต้นแรง เหนื่อยง่าย นอนไม่หลับ น้ำหนักลดทั้งที่กินเท่าเดิมหรือกินมากขึ้น เหงื่อออกง่าย ร้อนง่าย และอารมณ์แปรปรวน/หงุดหงิดง่าย บางคนมือสั่นด้วย ถ้าเป็นนาน ๆ อาจกระทบหัวใจได้ จึงไม่ควรปล่อยไว้ 2) ฮอร์โมนไทรอยด์ต่ำ จะออกแนว “เผาผลาญช้าลง” เช่น ขี้หนาว ชีพจรช้า ง่วงง่าย เหนื่อยง่าย น้ำหนักขึ้น ผิวแห้ง ผมร่วง ท้องผูก ความจำไม่ดี บวมหน้า/บวมตัว บางคนรู้สึกซึม ๆ ไม่สดใส ซึ่งอาจคล้ายภาวะเครียดหรือพักผ่อนไม่พอ ทำให้หลายคนมองข้าม อีกเรื่องที่คนกังวลคือ “คอโต/มีก้อนที่คอ” ก้อนที่ต่อมไทรอยด์อาจเป็นก้อนธรรมดา (ไม่ร้าย) หรือบางกรณีอาจเป็นมะเร็งไทรอยด์ได้ สัญญาณที่ควรรีบไปตรวจ เช่น ก้อนโตเร็ว เสียงแหบ กลืนลำบาก หายใจติดขัด หรือมีก้อนร่วมกับต่อมน้ำเหลืองโต ถ้าอยากเช็กให้ชัด แนะนำตรวจเลือดค่า TSH, Free T4 (บางเคสตรวจ Free T3 เพิ่ม) และอัลตราซาวด์ต่อมไทรอยด์ตามอาการค่ะ หมายเหตุ: มีคนค้นคำว่า “ไทรอยด์ภาษาอังกฤษ” บ่อย ๆ คำที่ใช้คือ Thyroid และ “ต่อมไทรอยด์” คือ Thyroid gland ส่วนคำว่า “LVEF ค่า ปกติ คือ” จะเป็นเรื่องการบีบตัวของหัวใจ (Ejection Fraction) คนที่มีไทรอยด์เป็นพิษอาจมีใจสั่น/หัวใจเต้นแรงจนสงสัยเรื่องหัวใจได้ แต่ LVEF ไม่ใช่ค่าตรวจไทรอยด์โดยตรง ถ้ากังวลอาการหัวใจ ควรปรึกษาแพทย์เพื่อประเมินร่วมกันค่ะ
