This is due to an iodine deficient diet. The treatment of goitre will depend upon the cause of the goitre. If the goitre was due to a deficiency of iodine in the diet , you will be given iodine supplementsorally. This will lead to a reduction in the size of the goitre but often the goitre will not completely resolve.
