Queen Anne's sign


The Sign of Hertoghe or Queen Anne's sign is a thinning or loss of the outer third of the eyebrows, and is a sign of hypothyroidism.

The association with Anne of Denmark is based on portraiture, and history does not suggest that she suffered an underactive thyroid.[3] The eponym is disputed by some.
