Summary

Report Overview
Global Thyroid Gland Disorders Therapeutics Market reached US$ 2.7 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 4.3 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period 2024-2031
Thyroid gland disorders therapeutics involve medical interventions to treat abnormalities in thyroid function, such as hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, thyroid nodules, and thyroid cancer. Treatments include hormone replacement therapy, antithyroid medications, radioactive iodine, and surgical options. Advancements in molecular and targeted therapies improve treatment precision, providing more tailored solutions for patients. These treatments address metabolic imbalances caused by disrupted thyroid hormone production.
Market Dynamics: Drivers & Restraints
Rise in the prevalence of thyroid disorders
The global thyroid gland disorders therapeutics market is experiencing growth due to the increasing prevalence of thyroid disorders like hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, thyroid nodules, and thyroid cancer. Factors like aging populations, genetic predispositions, and autoimmune diseases like Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Graves' disease are contributing to this increase.
For instance, according to America Thyroid Association, over 12 percent of the U.S. population will develop a thyroid condition, with 20 Billion Americans having some form of thyroid disease. Up to 60% of those with thyroid disease are unaware of their condition. Women are five to eight times more likely than men to have thyroid problems. One woman in eight will develop a thyroid disorder.
Most thyroid cancers respond to treatment, but a small percentage can be aggressive. Undiagnosed thyroid disease can lead to serious conditions like cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis, and infertility. Pregnant women with undiagnosed or inadequately treated hypothyroidism have an increased risk of miscarriage and preterm delivery. 
Complications associated with the drugs
Thyroid gland disorders can result in various side effects, depending on the treatment. Hormone replacement therapy, used in hypothyroidism, can cause weight gain, hair loss, heart palpitations, anxiety, and insomnia. Antithyroid medications, like methimazole and propylthiouracil, can cause liver toxicity, skin rashes, joint pain, and reduced white blood cell counts, increasing the risk of infections. Radioactive iodine therapy can lead to long-term hypothyroidism, requiring lifelong hormone replacement, and may cause dry mouth, salivary gland inflammation, or taste changes.
Market Segment Analysis
The global thyroid gland disorders therapeutics market is segmented based on disease type, drug class, route of administration, distribution channel, and region.
The thyroid hormones from the drug class segment accounted for approximately 40.1% of the thyroid gland disorders therapeutics market share
The thyroid hormones from the drug class segment accounted for approximately 40.1%. Thyroid hormones are crucial in treating thyroid disorders, especially hypothyroidism. Hormone replacement therapies like levothyroxine are used to restore normal levels of thyroid hormones, regulating metabolism and energy levels. 
The increasing prevalence of hypothyroidism and improved diagnostic techniques have driven demand for these therapies. Thyroid hormone levels are monitored and managed in patients undergoing treatments for hyperthyroidism, nodules, and thyroid cancer. The reliance on thyroid hormone replacement as a lifelong treatment contributes significantly to market growth.
For instance, in December 2023, the FDA approved 2 changes to the label of levothyroxine sodium (Tirosint-SOL, IBSA), an oral solution that is aimed to treat hypothyroidism. The first change included the use of levothyroxine sodium combined with proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy. The second change included timing to administer levothyroxine sodium.
Market Geographical Analysis
North America is estimated to hold about 38.4% of the total market share throughout the forecast period
North America is estimated to hold about 38.4% of the total market share throughout the forecast period due to increased prevalence, improved healthcare facilities, public awareness, and treatment options, as well as promotional strategies between governments and pharmaceutical companies.
For instance, in July 2024, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted full approval to the targeted therapy selpercatinib (Retevmo) for treating adult and pediatric patients 2 years and older with advanced or metastatic thyroid cancers that have certain changes in a gene called RET.
