The thyroid is a small gland about two inches across that lies under the Adam's apple in the lower neck. The butterfly-shaped gland secretes thyroid hormones which control the body's metabolism and supply oxygen to the cells.

Thyroid hormones affect many body functions including respiratory rate, heart rate, the number of calories burned, fertility and digestion.

A sluggish thyroid, or hypothyroidism, is common and more readily diagnosed now that test result level parameters have been expanded.
