Hashimoto's thyroiditis, also known as Hashimoto's disease, is an autoimmune disease affecting thyroid function.

Signs and symptoms[edit | edit source]

Treatments[edit | edit source]

HLA risk alleles link ME/CFS and Hashimoto's[edit | edit source]

In a large 2020 study, CFS patients with Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) risk alleles were found to share the following autoimmune diseases, ordered by frequency:[citation needed]

  1. Hashimoto's thyroiditis/hypothyreosis,
  2. Psoriasis
  3. Rheumatoid arthritis
  4. Alopecia areata
  5. Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis

Hashimoto's thyroiditis viral infections commonly associated with ME/CFS[edit | edit source]

Studies suggesting a viral trigger for Hashimoto's thyroiditis and autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) that are also viruses commonly associated with ME/CFS.

2012 Study using fine needle aspirates (FNA) thyroid biopsies found HHV-6 DNA in 28 of 34 (82%) Hashimoto's thyroiditis patients and 3 of 28 (10%) controls.

2017 A study comparing the involvement of HHV-6 infection between autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) patients and healthy controls. Thyroid gland biopsies confirmed active persistent HHV-6 infection in 18 of 44 (41%) AIT patients and 1 of 17 (6%) healthy controls.

2020 This study included 60 Hashimoto's thyroiditis patients and 60 healthy controls. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) Early Antigen (EA) was positive in 20 of 60 (33%) HT patients and 4 of 60 (7%) healthy controls, indicating a higher prevalence of active EBV in Hashimoto patients.
