Hello,

The treatment of hyperthyroidism is by antithyroid drugs. However the cause for hyperthyroidism has to be evaluated. It is uncommon to find obesity with hyperthyroidism, hence she needs evaluation by a physician or endocrinologist to find out the cause for hyperthyroidism and obesity.

Thank you
