Solution

The correct option is B Hashimoto's disease
Hashimoto's disease is an autoimmune disease which is a disorder where the body's immune system attacks the body's own cells and organs.
It causes the immune system to attack the thyroid gland, leading to inflammation and interference in its ability to produce thyroid hormones.

Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
