Hypothyroidism in menopausal women, prevalence and diagnosis
Keywords:
HYPOTHYROIDISM, MENOPAUSE, WOMEN.Abstract
Introduction: hypothyroidism in menopausal women in a common endocrinological disorder. A good diagnosis requires biochemical studies to determine the function of thyroid hormones and the correct application of the clinical method.
Objective: to describe the prevalence and diagnosis of hypothyroidism in menopausal women.
Methods: a bibliographic review of the updated scientific literature was carried out. Information was obtained through Web of Science, Scielo, ScienceDirect and PubMed. The following descriptors were introduced: hypothyroidism, endocrine disorders, hypothyroidism in menopausal women; and their respective translations into English. A total of 16 bibliographic references were used.
Conclusions: the establishment of the diagnosis of hypothyroidism in menopausal women requires taking into consideration the detected levels of thyroid hormones, whose decrease constitutes the main cause of the disease.
