Overview
Silent thyroiditis is a rare disease with the incidence of upto 23000 per 100,000 individuals with hyperthyroidism. The prevalence of silent thyroiditis is approximately 1000 per 100,000 individuals with thyrotoxicosis. Silent thyroiditis commonly affects patients in 30-40 years of age. Females are more commonly affected by silent thyroiditis than males. The female to male ratio is approximately 4 to 1. Silent thyroiditis is more common in areas of higher dietary iodine intake.
