Studying some physiological parameters in pregnant women with thyroid gland problems

This study was carried out to determine some hormonal and physiological parameters in women who attended Maternity and Children teaching hospital in Ramadi city , from 1 of August 2014 to 1 of April 2015. Ages of patients ranged from 16 49 years . The study included 358 blood samples from pregnant and non-pregnant women . sixty five samples were found to be abnormal thyroid function .

Women under study were divided into three groups: Pregnant Women with thyroid disorder( Group I ) , Pregnant Women without thyroid disorder (Group II ,control 1) , and nonPregnant Women without thyroid disorder (Group III , control 2). The study showed that there was no significant differences in T3 ,T4and FTI levels in patient compared with control 1 ( p-value >0.05) while it showed significant difference between patient and control 2 with p-value (<0.05). the means of T3,T4 and FTI in patient were 4.08 ng/ml, 7.10 μg/dl, 69.55 respectively. While there was no significant difference in level of TSH in cases and control 1 and control 2 with p-value >0.05. The mean level of TSH of patient was 18.65 μIU/ml . A comparison in physiological parameters between the three groups with each other showed that there was significant difference in levels of HB,PCV ,WBC ,RBC, platelet ,ESR in cases compared with control 2 with p-value <0.05,but didn’t show significant difference between cases and control 1 with p-value >0.05.The mean levels of patients for HB , PCV, WBC , RBC, platelet, ESR :10.09 g/dl ,32.09 % , 10.50 X 10 Cell/mm , 3.08 X 10 Cell/mm, 198.1 X 10 Cell/mm, 36.1 mm / h r
