Hi Thanks for posting your query. Non toxic goitre means there is no hypersecretion from thyroid gland . As long as it is non toxic and enlarging and not causing any compression symptoms like hoarseness of voice difficulty in swallowing there is no need for any other treatment like surgery but you need to continue taking medicine and get ultrasound every 6 months.
