Overview

Graves' disease may be caused by either genetic factors, autoimmune antibodies against thyrotropin receptors, T cells and B cells auto activation and infectious agents.

Causes

Graves' disease may be caused by either genetic factors, autoimmune antibodies against thyrotropin receptors, T cells and B cells auto activation and infectious agents.[1][2][3]
