Overview. The thyroid gland, located just below the voice box in the front of the neck, is a 2-inch gland with two lobes. The body's metabolism and calcium balance are primarily regulated by the thyroid gland. The T4 and T3 hormones that are secreted by the thyroid stimulate body tissue to produce protein. They also increase the amount of oxygen used by the cells. The calcitonin hormone released in the thyroid regulates calcium levels. The two primary diseases that compromise thyroid function are hypothyroidism, which is an under active thyroid, and hyperthyroidism, an overactive thyroid.
