To Compare TSH, T3, T4 Levels in Patients with Menstrual Disturbances with Normal Healthy Fertile Females

Abstract

Thyroid disorders may influence reproductive performance in a variety of ways ranging from abnormal sexual development to menstrual irregularities to infertility. A close interplay exists between thyroid hormone and normal steroid action and secretion, which are necessary for normal ovarian function and thus fertility. In the present study, a total of 100 patients were studied. Out of these 100 patients, 50 patients were with a history of menstrual disturbances and 50 patients of reproductive age group with normal menstrual cycle and with proven fertility were taken as control. It is concluded from the present study that abnormal thyroid profile is associated with menstrual disturbances.
