Abstract

Thyroid Diseases (TD) is due to failure in compatibility with physiological changes during pregnancy (PG) which leads to maternal outcome (MO) and foetal outcome (FO). Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the prevalence of TD in PG and its correlation with MO and FO. 450 pregnant female patients were investigated on the basis of detailed history, clinical information and lab investigation to record MO & FO for Hyperthyroidism (HYT) & hypothyroidism (HT) disorders. We found that, significant difference (p<0.01) which indicates that those who had received treatment for HT has less complications compared to those who had not received treatment. Thus, HT warrants careful management to mitigate associated risks and complications.
