Reference ranges and determinants of thyroid function during early pregnancy: the SELMA study.

Conclusions: We show that the exclusion of TgAb positive women on top of excluding TPOAb positive women hardly affects clinical reference ranges. We identified various relevant clinical determinants of TSH, FT4, FT3, TT4 and TT3 which could reflect endocrine disrupting effects and/or effects on thyroid hormone transport or deiodination.
