Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Reproductive Medicine
  • Maternal-Fetal Medicine

Context:

  • Thyroid function abnormalities affect up to 10% of pregnant women.
  • Maternal thyroid health is crucial for fetal development.
  • Various factors, including iodine deficiency and hCG levels, can influence thyroid function during pregnancy.

Purpose:

  • To review all types of thyroid dysfunctions during pregnancy.
  • To highlight the impact of maternal thyroid disorders on fetal development.
  • To consolidate current knowledge on thyroid health in pregnant women.

Summary:

  • Pregnancy involves significant physiological changes that can unmask or exacerbate thyroid dysfunction.
  • Conditions discussed include hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and immunological thyroid disorders.
  • Inappropriate human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) production can also affect maternal thyroid status.

Impact:

  • Understanding these dysfunctions is vital for timely diagnosis and management.
  • Appropriate management can prevent adverse fetal outcomes.
  • This review serves as a comprehensive resource for clinicians and researchers in maternal-fetal medicine.
