  1. Hyperthyroidism During Pregnancy Overt hyperthyroidism Subclinical hyperthyroidism

  2. The Most Common Cause of Hyperthyroidism • Graves’ disease • hCG mediated hyperthyroidism • Hyper emesis gravidaraum • Multiple pregnancies • Trophoblastic disease

  3. Changes in thyroid physiology • TBG excess results in high serum total T4 concentrations (not free T4) • High serum hCG results in transient subclinical or overt hyperthyroidism

  4. Pregnancy complications • Spontaneous abortion • Premature labor • Low birth weight • Stillbirth • Preeclampsia • Heat failure • Thyroid storm

  5. Diagnosis • TSH < 0.1 or undetectable • Free T4 • Free T3 • Total T4 • Total T3 • TRAb

  6. Treatment • Indication • Moderate to severe overt hyperthyroidism T4 or T3 > 1.5 times • Thionamids + BetablockersHypoglycemia IUGR • Plasmapheresis • Radioiodine First 2 weeks Spontaneous miscarriage 2 to 12 weeks Birth defects 12 to 14 weeks fetal thyroid ablation

  7. HypothyroidismDuring Pregnancy • Overt hypothyroidism 0.3 - 0.5 • Subclinical hypothyroidism 2 – 2.5

  8. Pregnancy Complications • Preeclampsia and gestational hypertention • Placental abruption • Nonreassuring fetal heart rate tracing • Preterm delivery, including very preterm delivery • Low birth weight • Increased rate of cesarean section • Perinatal morbidity and mortality • Neuropsychological and cognitive impairment • Postpartum hemorrhage

  9. Diagnosis • First trimester 0.1 < TSH < 2.5 • Second trimester 0.2 < TSH < 3 T4 • Third trimester 0.3 < TSH < 3 • TPO in subclinical

  10. The Universal Screening of Asymptomatic Pregnant Women for Thyroid Dysfunction Yes No or

  11. ATA and ACOG recommend targeted case : • From an area of known modarate to severe iodine insufficiency • Have a family or personal history of thyroid disease • Have thyroid peroxidase antibodies • Type 1 diabetes • History of preterm delivery or miscarriage • History of head or neck radiation • BMI ≥ 40 • Infertility • Age > 30 years

  12. Treatment • Indication • Overt moderate to severe 1.6 mcg/kg • TSH < 10 1mcg/kg • Subclinical • Per existing hypothyroidism TSH < 1.2

  13. Positive TPO Complications • Preterm birth • Fetal loss • Perinatal mortality • Large-for-gestational-age infants • Subclinical hypothyroidism • Post partum thyroiditis

  14. Does Positive TPO Need Treatment?
