ABSTRACT
Whether levothyroxine ( LT4 ) treatment improves outcomes following in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer ( IVF-ET) in euthyroid women who have tested positive for thyroid autoantibodies remains unclear. In Pregnancy Outcome Study in enthyroid women with Thyroid Autoimmunity after Levothyroxine ( POSTAL) trial, which was a randomized controlled study involving 600 euthyroid women undergoing IVF-ET who were tested positive for thyroperoxidase antibodies, the miscarriage rate, clinical pregnancy rate and live-birth rate were not significantly different between the LT4 intervention group and control group. Therefore, LT4 treatment did not appear to improve pregnancy outcomes among women with thyroid autoantibodies undergoing IVF-ET.
