Secondary hyperthyroidism
Secondary (central) hyperthyroidism is a rare condition of excessive synthesis of thyroid hormones by the thyroid gland, which is caused by excessive secretion of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). This situation is a consequence of pituitary pathology and a disruption of the regulatory feedback between TSH and thyroid hormones.
It develops in hormonally active pituitary tumors (thyrotrophic tumors), or in conditions of pituitary resistance to thyroid hormones. Both conditions are accompanied by uncontrolled TSH secretion by the pituitary gland and constant stimulation of the thyroid gland to produce T3 and T4.
How does treatment work at the "PlanetaMed" clinic?
The first stage is a comprehensive examination of the body.
We go beyond simply making a diagnosis. It is crucial for us to understand how all body systems function, evaluate metabolic processes, inflammatory activity, immune status, gut and mitochondrial health, vitamin and trace element deficiencies, as well as other indicators that may influence the development of the disease.
It is high-quality diagnostics that forms the foundation of effective treatment.
What is included in the primary diagnostic list?
- Complete blood count (CBC)
- Biochemical blood test (total protein, lactate, bilirubin, urea, creatinine, ALT, AST, eosinophil cationic protein, NSE, S100, total IgE, TNF-alpha, C-reactive protein, rheumatoid factor)
- Urine organic acids — 60 parameters (urine)
- Amino acids — 48 parameters (blood)
- ASO (Antistreptolysin O)
- Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), quantitative
*Additional data may be required; the clinic administrators will provide you with more precise information.

The exact same diagnosis can have completely different causes. Our task is to find the specific mechanism that led to the development of the illness in your particular case.
We analyze the examination results, medical history, and clinical picture to determine the root causes of the disease: chronic inflammation, metabolic disorders, mitochondrial dysfunction, toxic load, immune disorders, deficiency states, and other factors.
By addressing the cause, rather than just the symptoms, we create the foundation for sustainable results.

After establishing a complete clinical picture, the doctor develops a personalized treatment program.
Depending on the patient's condition, it may include:
- infusion therapy;
- dietary adjustments;
- ketogenic and metabolic programs;
- mitochondrial support;
- gut restoration;
- anti-inflammatory therapy;
- cellular technologies;
- nutritional support and other modern methods.
Each plan is created individually, taking into account age, diagnosis, examination results, and treatment goals.

Treatment is a process that requires monitoring and timely adjustments.
Our specialists accompany the patient throughout the entire program: they evaluate progress, monitor health indicators, adjust prescriptions, and answer any questions that arise. This approach allows us to adapt the treatment in a timely manner and achieve the best possible results for each patient.
At PlanetaMed, we do not treat an isolated diagnosis — we work with the body as a whole, helping to restore its own resources and regain quality of life.
