Abstract :
Aim: To investigate the relationship of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) in patients with PCOS.
Materials and Methods: Present cross sectional study was carried out in 120 patients detected with PCOS, attending gynaecology OPD for menstrual problems. Control group consist of total of 120 normo-ovulatory and norm androgenic women with parallel age were enrol as a control group for thyroid hormones levels.
After an all night fast of 12 hours, venous blood was collected from the antecubital vein for the assessment of Thyroid stimulating hormone as biochemical parameters.
Results: The mean of Thyroid stimulating hormone in the control group was found to be 1.81 ± 0.74, while in patients with PCOS the mean value of TSH was found to be 4.23 ± 1.98. While the assessment for Thyroid stimulating hormone was through among the case and control groups, the values of thyroid stimulating hormone was establish to be improved in case groups and the raise in the disparity was found to be statistically significant.
Conclusion: It was concluded that advanced prevalence of TSH in young women with PCOS contrast with that reported for the residents of young women in common. Additional future studies with big sample sizes are necessary to raise accepting of the relationship between these diseases and to grant management on which to base curative conclusions.
