Summary

Iodine has been identified as a potential factor influencing female fertility during the childbearing years. The American Thyroid Association recommends that women attempting to conceive take a supplement containing 150 µg of iodine. However, no clinical trials have specifically examined the necessity of iodine supplementation in women experiencing infertility. Furthermore, no information is available on the optimal dose and duration of iodine supplementation to increase the chances of successful treatment in this group of women. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effects of iodine supplementation on fertility parameters in infertile women.
