Overview
Prognosis is generally good, 25-30% in 3.5 to 8.7-year patients with postpartum thyroiditis PPT develop hypothyroidism.
Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
- The symptoms of postpartum thyroiditis, PPT usually develop in the twevle months after devilry , abortion or miscarriage of fetus and start with symptoms depending on clinical course that it follows.
- There are three clinical courses:
- Classic triphasic: 25% of patients of PPT come to clinical attention with symptoms of hyperthyroidism starting from sixth postpartum week[1] followed by hypothyroidism around sixth postpartum month and then euthyroidisum by the of 12 months of postpartum .[2]
- Biphasic hyperthyroidism: 32 % patients of PPT develops symptoms of hyperthyroidism followed recovery.[2]
- Biphasic hypothyroidism: 43 % patients of PPT develops symptoms of hypothyroidism followed recovery .[2]
- If left untreated, 25-30% of patients with PPT may progress to develop hypothyroidism[3]
- Patients who are anti-TPO antibodies positive,HLA-DRW9 and/or HLA-DRB51 [4] , and developed hypothyroid phase of PPT, are at increased risk of developing permanent hypothyroidism.[5]
Complications
- Common complications of include:
Prognosis
- Prognosis is generally good and 90% of patient recover to normal state after 12 months of postpartum.[10]
- 25-30% in 3.5 to 8.7-year patients with postpartum thyroiditis develop hypothyroidism.
