Sixty samples were taken for patients with hypothyroidism, as the group of patients (G1) whichsubdivided into two subgroups, 26 of them were taking levothyroxine dose of 200 µg/day(G2), and 34 of them were taking levothyroxine dose of 100 µg/day(G3), and 30 samples represented the control group, the ages of patients and control ranged between (40-60) years old.
