    What is the definition of Thyroid Dysgenesis?

    Thyroid dysgenesis, also known as congenital hypothyroidism (low thyroid hormones), is a mainly a genetic condition that affects newborns in which they have a partial or complete loss of function of the thyroid gland, which is a butterfly-shaped gland in the lower neck that normally produces thyroid hormones. Thyroid hormones are necessary for regulating growth, brain development, and metabolism. The main causes of congenital hypothyroidism (thyroid dysgenesis) are when the thyroid gland is absent, smaller than normal, abnormally situated, or fails to develop or function fully.
