Abstract

Diabetes mellitus and thyroid hormone dysfunction are two common endocrinopathies seen in adult population. Insulin and thyroid hormones are intimately involved in cellular metabolism, so excess or deficit of any of them can derange the function of another. To see the prevalence of hypothyroidism in type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients. Atotal of 235 patients with diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus of either sex, aged >20 years were included in the study. Analysis of serum TSH by ELISAwas done in all patients of the study. Atotal of 235(107 males and 128 females) Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients were included in the study. Hypothyroidism was seen in 48(20.4%) patients. Hyperthyroidism was seen in 17(7.2%) patients. Euthyroid patients were 170(72.3%). Out of 128 females 27(11.4%) had hypothyroidism whereas out of 107 males 21(8.9%) had hypothyroidism. We conclude that prevalence of hypothyroidism was 20.4% and seen more in female Type 2 Diabetic patients as compared with male patients.
