The patient's blood samples were collected and assessed for serum progesterone and serum prolactin (S. PRL) prior to and after 3 months postoperatively after total thyroidectomy. Result: There was an increase in the value of S. PRL. There was no change in the value of S. Progesterone. Conclusion: There was a significant change in the hormonal status after thyroidectomy. Serum PRL increased and Serum Progesterone showed no change. To our best knowledge, this was the first of a kind study to evaluate hormones following thyroidectomy in cancer patients.
