Abstract
ABSTRACT During pregnancy the hormonal changes take place, resulting in changes in thyroid functions. The present study was conducted to determine thyroid hormones and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in normotensive pregnancy. Fifty normotensive pregnant subjects were included in the study. Age-matched 50 nonpregnant subjects, not having any disease were taken as control. Total triiodothyronine (total T3), total thyroxine (total T4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), and hCG were estimated by using enzyme amplified chemiluminescent immunoassay. The level of thyroid hormones was found significantly increased in normotensive pregnant subjects as compared to that of control group. We therefore conclude that investigations should be done routinely in pregnancy. How to cite this article Singh AK, Agrawal P, Gautam BK, Garg R.
