Abstract :

Aim: To see the variations in Iron and lipid profile which may affect the thyroid functions in hypothyroid and hyperthyroidism patients. Materials and Methods: Ferritin, Iron, TIBC and lipid profile levels were estimated in 50 age and sex matched patients of hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism using Thyroid profile and ferritin levels were estimated using CLIA in Mindray. Iron, TIBC and Lipid profile levels were estimated in BS380 and the results were correlated statistically. Results: Serum ferritin levels were found to be significantly decreased in patients with hypothyroidism and increased in hyperthyroidism (p < 0> Conclusion: Both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism show the variations in iron and lipid profile. The estimation of iron profile and lipid profile may help in understanding the etiopathogenesis, diagnosis, and monitoring of hypothyroid and hyperthyroidism patients.
