Prevalence Of Thyroid Hormones Test Abnormality In Females At Reproductive Age Attending Al-batool Maternity Teaching Hospital
Background: Although there is little information about the prevalence of thyroid disorders in young women, but they are common in Iraq.

Serum levels of T3, T4, and TSH were measured in this study.
