The study observed that 28.87% of the patients with thyroid disorder had dyslipedemia. The associations between type of thyroid disorder and total cholesterol levels (p=04) and level of triglycerides (p=0.0390) were found to be statistically significant. Dyslipedemia was seen majority (32.93%) in the cases of hypothyroidism compared to cases of hyperthyroidism with dyslipedemia (6.67%). Raised triglycerides were also more common in the cases of hypothyroidism (40.24%) than hyperthyroidism (13.33%).
