- Abstract
Vitamin D has a crucial role in maintaining thyroid and immune function. In hypothyroidism, the gland is underactive and Vitamin D impacts this condition. Vitamin D regulates gene expression in thyroid hormone synthesis and influences the immune system, affecting overall thyroid health. From the literatures, it is evident that hypothyroidism is correlated with hypovitaminosis D. The immune-mediated properties of Vitamin D reduce the symptoms of hypothyroidism caused by autoimmune conditions. Understanding the correlation of Vitamin D with hypothyroidism is crucial as it holds potential therapeutic implications. Maintaining adequate Vitamin D improves gland function and prevents disease-related complications.
