Abstract

Thyroid disorders are one of the most common endocrinopathies in women of reproductive age. Measurement of TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone) concentration in women planning pregnancy/pregnant is a golden standard of thyroid function assessment. When the laboratory findings do not correspond with the clinical signs, it is reasonable to mark macro-TSH.

Keywords: macro-TSH; pregnancy; thyroid dysfunction.
