The hypothyroidism market size was valued at USD 2.10 Billion in 2024 in the 7 major markets, driven by the rising incidence of thyroid gland disorders. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.60% during the forecast period of 2025-2034, with the values likely to reach USD 3.29 Billion by 2034.

Hypothyroidism: Introduction

Hypothyroidism, also known as underactive thyroid, occurs when the thyroid gland produces less thyroid hormone than needed by the body. This condition is commonly diagnosed by blood tests. Symptoms vary from person to person, depending on the severity. Common symptoms include weight gain, tiredness, dry skin, sensitivity to cold, constipation among others. Thyroid hormone medicines are frequently used as a treatment for the condition.

Hypothyroidism Market Analysis

The hypothyroidism market demand has increased with the increasing incidence of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, which is an autoimmune disorder impacting the thyroid gland and causing hypothyroidism.

While levothyroa, the synthetic form of T4 hormone, is the most prescribed thyroid medicine, there has been focus on developing other effective medicines as well. Selenium supplements and thyroid hormone analogs, which help in hormone deficiency compensation and corticosteroids, are emerging as potential treatment alternatives in the market. Desiccated thyroid extract (DTE), a natural blend of thyroid hormone containing both T3 and T4, has shown positive results in trials.

Apart from drug administration, there have been significant developments to treat the condition on the cellular level. In September 2023, Sernova Corp., a clinical-stage cell therapeutics company, unveiled a new cell therapy platform called the ‘Cell Pouch System' to treat post operative hypothyroidism. Reimplantation of the thyroid tissue into the pre-vascularized Cell Pouch™ led to restoration of the thyroid hormones. The arrival of such technologies demonstrates that the hypothyroidism market value is projected to grow in the forecast period.
