Thyroid hormones play a pivotal role in the overall physiological and developmental function of the human body. Alterations in thyroid hormones drastically affect regular metabolic processes as well as physical well-being. Thyroid alterations directly influence the functioning of all major body systems including cardiovascular, neurological, gastrointestinal, etc. The thyroid hormonal imbalance is primarily classified into two major conditions: hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism. The present chapter details the pathology of thyroid imbalance in the context of human reproductive health, autoimmunity, and micronutrient imbalance. Some novel micronutrient associations independent of iodine deficiencies are discussed. Additionally, the early predictive capability of the anti-TPO antibody as well as other autoimmune correlations are discussed. Given its role in reproductive health, the associations of various sex hormones with thyroid function were also explored. |
