Abstract
Objective: The objective of the study was to investigate lipids and thyroid profile status among women with (100 pregnant women) or without pregnancy (100 normal) and with preeclampsia (100 pre-eclamptic women). Methods: The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Pacific Institute of Medical Sciences in Udaipur treated 300 patients (obstetric cases) for the current case control comparative study. The total lipid and thyroid profile were examined for in a fasting blood sample. Results: The study showed increased level of triiodothyronine, thyroxine in pre-eclampsia than normal pregnant but non-significant. Lipid profile (TC, TG, LDL, and VLDL), TSH were significantly higher in pre-eclampsia than in normal pregnant and non- pregnant women. Conclusion: Thyroid disorder is one of the predisposing causes for pre-eclampsia. Hence, thyroid hormonal assay can be considered as a screening test for early diagnosis and treatment of pre-eclampsia to prevent further complications of it.
