Aim: Homeostatic Model Assessment -Insulin Resistance- 2 test findings in people with mild hypothyroidism should be analyzed. Introduction: Hypothyroidism is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and alterations in blood lipidshave also been related to subclinical hypothyroidism. Treating hypothyroidism with levothyroxine (LT4) may help to improve lipid profiles and heart health, particularly in those with a wider deviation from the normal and higher blood TSH levels. Materials and Methods:There was a wide range of TSH levels among the study's participants, all of whom were between the ages of 20 and 45 and had never been diagnosed with thyroid disease. The study also included 50 people who had recently been diagnosed with moderate SCH but had not earlier been diagnosed with thyroid disease. Results: The glucose metabolism and insulin resistance are strongly influenced by thyroid hormones. Thyroid hormones. Participants in SCH were found to be more likely to be overweight or obese than those who did not participate in the research. TSH (r = 0.290; P\0.01) and LDL (r = 0.210; P\0.052) were shown to be significantly related in this study. SCH individuals had considerably higher LDL-cholesterol levels, according to this research.
