Prolactin, Thyroid Stimulating Hormone and Thyroid Hormones (Ft3, Ft4) Concentrations in Female Patients with Inferility: An Observational Study

Abstract: Objective: To determine the variations in thyroid hormones, thyroid stimulating hormone and prolactin levels in females of our population. Materials and methods:Subject characteristics: Patients aged 13 to 60 years were studied for their hormonal profile. The inclusion criteria had patients with complaints of mild reproductive and thyroid dysfunction. Patients with severe disorders and cancerous conditions were excluded from the study.Blood sampling: 3 ml blood was drawn and transferred to clean test tubes. Bl… Show more

“…Among these patients, the frequency of thyroid function test abnormalities was higher than in controls. 11 Another study found that patients with HPRL had a higher prevalence of TAI than controls, but the difference was not statistically significant. 14 Other research has examined the impact of iodine supplementation on TAI and found that while iodine prophylaxis may have some risks for TAI, in a population with a stable median iodine concentration of up to 300 μg/L, the benefits are significantly greater than the risks.…”

“…Other studies have also reported the association between HPRL and TAI. A study by Unluturk et al 11 found that among patients exhibiting autoantibody positivity, thyroid function test irregularities were more prevalent in HPRL patients (60%) compared to controls (9.1%). Similarly, Sahu et al 9 conducted a study that found a correlation between PRL and TSH levels in patients with clinical and subclinical hypothyroidism.…”
