Summary

The management of thyroid function in pregnancy has been object of several guidelines in the last years. Normal thyroid function reduces prenatal and post-natal risks and gestational complaints. Trimester specific reference values of thyroid hormones and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) are available for selected geographic population but its are not yet are available in our country. Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) is the most frequent autoimmune thyroid disease which can induce thyroid dysfunction, mainly sub-clinical hypothyroidism. Due to the large incidence in women HT and its potential link with thyroid dysfunction this disease could be search and monitored before pregnancy. Anyway a strong recommendation is to test TSH levels in all patients seeking pregnancy at risk for thyroid dysfunction for a history or current symptoms/signs of thyroid dysfunction, known positivity od thyroid autoimmunity or goiter, a history of neck radiation, age \>30 years, diabetes mellitus, previous infertility or pregnant loss, morbid obesity, living in area of moderate-severe iodine deficiency or recent administration of drugs/substance interfering with thyroid function.
