Hashimoto Thyreoiditis and Morbus Basedow is an information and peer-support resource focused on autoimmune thyroid disorders. The site explains that this term covers Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, which is associated with an underactive thyroid, and Graves’ disease (Morbus Basedow), which causes the thyroid to produce excess hormones. It provides educational material on the conditions, including their causes, symptoms, and treatment, and outlines how symptoms and disease courses can vary from person to person. Topics include fatigue, weight changes, sensitivity to cold, restlessness, hair loss, sweating, heart symptoms, and possible eye involvement in Graves’ disease.

The website also offers separate discussion forums for people affected by Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and Graves’ disease, where users can ask questions and exchange experiences. Its medical information was prepared by Dr. L. Brakebusch and Professor Dr. A. E. Heufelder. Forum contributions come mainly from lay participants, some with substantial personal experience. The site emphasizes that its information and community discussions do not replace medical care or a visit to a physician.
