This prevalence study was exclusively for the goitre detection in individuals who has no prior awareness of thyroid disorder and also those patients giving history of signs and symptoms of such conditions. Subjects underwent investigations for (T3, T4, TSH and FNAC) to analyze status and type of Goitre. Of the first 30 cases, only 8 cases were investigated and later on personal interest for confirmation of goitre disorder prevalence additional 70 cases were assessed of which 51 cases were investigated. On basis of investigation and epidemiology, we concluded that probably soil and water sources contain less iodine. Sample shown are comparatively less, but in our area number of goitre cases are more and it needs further extensive survey.
