Popis: We conducted an observational cohort study to evaluate whether drugs used for hypothalamic inhibition may impact thyroid function of infertile women scheduled for fresh nondonor in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection treatment. We considered eligible for inclusion in the study only women with normal thyroid function (serum thyroid-stimulating hormone [TSH] range: 0.2-4.0 mIU/L, serum thyroxin values: 9-22 pmol/L) and negative personal history for previous thyroid disorders. According to which protocols were implemented to gain hypothalamic inhibition, patients were assigned to group A (70 women treated by long gonadotropin-releasing hormone [GnRH] agonist protocol) or to group B (86 women treated by flexible GnRH antagonist protocol). Before initiating controlled ovarian stimulation (COS), both groups were further stratified into 4 subgroups: A1 (46 of the 70 women) and B1 (61 of the 86 women) in women with a baseline TSH value
