* [[Inflammation]] of the thyroid is called [[thyroiditis]]. There are several different kinds of thyroiditis including [[Hashimoto's thyroiditis]] (Hypothyroidism immune-mediated), and [[subacute thyroiditis]] (de Quervain's). These may be ''initially'' associated with secretion of excess thyroid hormone but usually progress to gland dysfunction and, thus, to hormone deficiency and hypothyroidism.

* [[Amiodarone]], an [[antiarrhythmic agent|antiarrhythmic drug]], is structurally similar to thyroxine and may cause either under-or [[Amiodarone induced thyrotoxicosis|overactivity]] of the thyroid.

* [[Postpartum thyroiditis]] (PPT) occurs in about 7% of women during the year after they give birth. PPT typically has several phases, the first of which is hyperthyroidism. This form of hyperthyroidism usually corrects itself within weeks or months without the need for treatment.

* A [[struma ovarii]] is a rare form of monodermal [[teratoma]] that contains mostly thyroid tissue, which leads to hyperthyroidism.
