ANSWER: C. Congenital hypothyroidism (CH)
A severe shortage of thyroid hormone in infants is known as congenital hypothyroidism, sometimes known as cretinism. It causes physical abnormalities, poor growth, and neurological problems. An issue with the baby's thyroid gland or a shortage of iodine in the mother's body during pregnancy could cause the disease.
Iodine is required for the production of thyroid hormones in a baby's body. Thyroid hormones are necessary for the development of the brain, neurological system, and other parts of the body to grow properly.
The basic treatment is to administer the thyroid hormone to the baby (levothyroxine). Without treatment within the first four weeks following birth, the intellectual handicap could become permanent.
It is a severe deficiency of thyroid hormone in newborns and previously known as cretinism.
