Özet
Thyroid disease is very frequent in women, during pregnancy and the postpartum period. The healthy pregnant women is considered to be euthyroid. However, the production, circulation, and disposal of thyroid hormone are altered in pregnancy. The pattern of thyroid hormones in pregnancy is important in diagnosis thyroid disease. The main events occurring during pregnancy are: a marked increase in serum thyroxinebinding globulin levels, a marginal decrease in free hormone concentrations, a direct stimulation of the maternal thyroid gland by elevated levels of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), and modifications of the peripheral metabolism of maternal thyroid hormones. The placenta transports and metabolizes maternal thyroid hormones.
