Abstract
Studies show, that smoke may effect physiological of the thyroid gland functions, this study aim was to decide the effects of cigarette smoke or hookah smoke on thyroid function in males. Thyroid is a consider endocrine gland located under the larynx, thyroid hormones of the major are thyroxinT4, Tri-iodothyroxine T3 , and thyroid inspiring hormone TSH,. Male divided into cigarette smokeG1, hookah smoking G2,and control group G3, The results indicated that serum TSH levels were significant change low a in the G1 group than with the control group(G3), and we found the levels of TSH hormone were significant change lower P˂0.05 in the cigarette smokers compared with the control group, TSH levels were no significant P≥0.05 between the hookah smokingG2 3.6±0.004 and control group, and highly significant mean differences among two groups in the TSH levels between the G1 and G2, Our findings also indicated a significant increase in T3 or T4 serum levels in smoking, also the levels of triiodothyronine hormone (T3) were P˂0.05 (significantly higher) in the cigarette smokers 3.50±1.1 nmol/l compare with the control group G3, 0.98±0.002nmol/l,, We found also the levels of thyroxine T4 significant higher p˂0.05 than control G3 and cigarette smokers. Also the significant differences in T3 levels P˂0.05 betweenG24.01±`0.4 than G3 0.98±0.002,also we found significant differences in the T4 levels P˂0.05 between G2 140±30 compared G3 120±22, . Also we found no significant change in T3 levels P>0.05 between G1 3.50±`1.1than G2 4.01±`0.4, also we found no significant changes in T4 levels P>0.05 in G1 135±24compared G2
