Graves disease is the most common cause of hyperthyroidism andoccurs mostoften in women over age 20\. However, the disorder may occur at any age and may affect males as well.Treatmentmayinclude radioiodine therapy, antithyroid drugs, and/or thyroid surgery. **Genetic basis** No **Non-human condition** No **Rare disease** No **Listing at source** Listed **Condition name** Graves disease **Therapeutic area** Endocrinology ### Alternative names (9) -
