Abstract

Studies have identified the relationship between the amount of thyroid hormones and the lipid profile in individuals with hypothyroid. This research is used to assess the serum lipid profile concentration in individuals with hypothyroid and to combine it with good checks. A total of 50 hypothyroid patients within aged group 20–60 years and healthy controls within 20–60 years of both sexes were enrolled in the study after taking written consent. lipid profile were measured by standard procedures. Data collected was analysed using Stata version 14.1 software. Result shows that there is significant increase in serum TC,TG,LDL-C levels among hypothyroid patients when compared to controls whereas there is a decreased in serum HDL-C level among hypothyroid when compared to controls
