Evaluating the progression to abnormal thyrotropin in euthyroid preconception women: a population-based study

ConclusionsBoth low and high baseline thyrotropin were associated with a significantly increased risk of developing abnormal thyrotropin outcomes. The optimal preconception baseline thyrotropin levels may be between 1.43 mIU/L and 1.93 mIU/L or baseline thyrotropin MoM between 0.59 and 1.36 to minimize progression toward abnormal thyrotropin after 1.5 –3.0 years. These findings may help with counseling of preconception thyroid function monitoring.
