Thyroid disorders are also very common in the general population and are second only to diabetes as the most common condition to affect the endocrine system. As a result, it is common for an individual to be affected by both thyroid diseases and diabetes. Our aim was to compare the prevalence of thyroid dysfunction in type 2 diabetic patients and healthy controls. Thyroid disorders and diabetes mellitus have a common auto immuneetiology, diabetic patients having increased TSH could be due to immunological disturbances. Increase in serum TSH levels in diabetes patients compared to healthy controls is suggestive of diabetic patients probably suffering from subclinical hypothyroidism.
