PREGNANCY AND THYROID DISEASE
Dr. Maysaa Fawzi Ali*, Dr. Shatha Khayoon Jasim and Dr. Zainab Falih Ali
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.
