*Dr. Suha Mahmood Walee Al- Tamimi, Dr. Maha Fouad Abdulaaima Al-Zuhairi and Dr. Ameerah Mahdi Raham
ABSTRACT
Thyroid diseases are the commonest cause of endocrine dysfunction in women of childbearing age and, therefore, encountered commonly in pregnancy. Disorders of thyroid hormone production and their treatment can affect fertility, maternal well-being, fetal growth and development. Whilst hypothyroidism is common, hyperthyroidism has much greater implications for pregnancy.
