Evaluation of Thyroid Hormone Changes in Non-Pregnant, Normotensive Pregnant and Pregnancy with Preeclampsia

Abstract: The objective of the study was to evaluate the thyroid hormone levels among healthy non-pregnant women with normotensive pregnant women and women with preeclampsia. Materials and methods: In these prospective study 90 women in the age group of 19-36 are divided into 3 groups consisting of 30 healthy non-pregnant women, 30 healthy normotensive pregnant women and 30 pregnant women with preeclampsia and evaluated for thyroid profile. Results: Serum TT4 and TT3 levels in normotensive pregnant women and preeclampti… Show more

“…The results of this study showed that the higher TSH mean level in preeclamptic patients, which is consistent with other studies [ 35 , 64 , 82 ]. Even though placental function abnormalities can interfere with estrogen production, leading to decrease of TBG levels and it can be a reason for elevated TSH secretion by anterior pituitary [ 59 , 61 ] but in the some studies, TSH level in preeclamptic women was not higher than normal pregnant women [ 3 , 41 ].…”

“…In another study, TSH is correlated positively with systolic blood pressure in preeclampsia [ 31 ] but this relationship did not find in this metanalysis. The differences observed in researches could be as a result of differences in the race, diets, and geographical locations of participants [ 29 ].In general, the results of current meta-analysis showed that an increase serum TSH with a meaningless difference in FT4 in preeclamptic women is called subclinical hypothyroidism [ 5 ]; this finding is supported by previous studies [ 42 , 44 , 64 ].…”
