ABSTRACT
Present study was conducted to see the effect of thyroid profile in different menstrual problems and their effects on fertility. Prospective study. A total of eighteen hundred and seventy eight patients reported during the year 2006-8, for the present study to see the role of thyroid hormone in fertility. Out of them, 580[30.9%] males and 1298[69.1%] were females with mean age 35 +/- 5 yr and 32 +/- 5 yr respectively. All data analysis were performed using statistical package SPSS version 12.0 [SPSS, Inc.. Chicago IL, USA]. Mean T3, T4 and TSH levels were found to be 0.85, 0.94 and 0.56. However, significant correlation was found between the thyroid profile and fertility [r=0.535 at p<0.01 with 99% CI]. The contribution of thyroid profile in fertility and menstrual disturbances are substantial. Therefore, it is recommended to know the thyroid status in these cases to minimize the problem:
