Résumé
@#Iodine is an essential nutrient required for thyroid hormone synthesis and human growth and development. Iodine requirements increase substantially during pregnancy, and insufficient iodine intake may affect the health of pregnant women, and fetal growth and development. Iodized salt-based iodine supplementation is effective to improve maternal iodine levels, reduce risk of thyroid dysfunctions, and plays a vital role in improvements of offspring growth and development and prevention of intellectual disability. However, excessive iodine supplementation during pregnancy may affect maternal thyroid functions and the nerve development of offspring. Precise and personalized iodine supplementation schemes are therefore required tailored to local iodine deficiency degree and pregnant women's individual iodine status. This review summarizes the advances in the impact of iodine supplementation during pregnancy on maternal and offspring health, so as to provide insights into the guidance of iodine supplementation during pregnancy.
