Overview

The most potent risk factor in the development of Graves' disease is genetic susceptibility. Other risk factors include infections, stress and smoking.

Risk Factors

This table summarizes the risk factors for Graves' disease.

Risk Factors Graves' disease
Genetic susceptibility
  • The concordance rate in monozygotic twins is 20 to 40 percent.
Infection There are some possible infection that may predispose patient to Graves' disease
Stress Some psychotic stress disorders are more common among Graves' patients.[4][5]
Smoking It is associated with Graves' disease and Graves' ophthalmopathy.[6]
