Abstract: Thyroid diseases are the second most common endocrine disorder affecting women of reproductive age. Normal thyroid function in a pregnant woman is essential for a successful pregnancy. During pregnancy, thyroid hormones play a key role in the regulation of the mother’s metabolic processes – respectively carbohydrate, water-salt, and calcium-phosphorus exchange, ensuring homeostasis. On the other hand, an adequate amount of thyroid hormones in the fetus is related to its normal development, maturation, and brain function. In the first half of pregnancy, the development of the fetus is entirely dependent on the levels of maternal thyroid hormones The functioning of the fetal thyroid gland begins after 8-10 weeks of gestation.Therefore, the subtle mechanisms of regulation of the thyroid gland function of the pregnant woman, serving to provide for the needs of the mother and the developing fetus, are of great importance. Hypothyroidism occurs in approximately 2-2.5% of pregnant women. This condition is a risk factor for maternal and fetal complications.
