    This document provides a schematic diagram that outlines the pathophysiology of hyperthyroidism. It shows that factors like diet, medications, stress, Graves' disease, thyroiditis, and pituitary adenomas can increase TSH stimulation to the pituitary gland, leading to increased production of thyroid hormones T3 and T4. This hormonal imbalance then causes multi-system changes that impact patients physically, respiratory, nutritionally, musculoskeletally, psychologically, and integumentarily.
