Can titanium screws/chin implants trigger an autoimmune response?

December 7, 2018
Asked By:Roxy899 in Athens, TX

Hello Doctors, I had a silicone chin implant on March 2017 secured with titanium screws. On March 2018, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's after months of constant fatigue. I was wondering if titanium screws or silicone implants could be the cause of my disease? Thank you in advance.
