Exploring hypothyroidism’s effects on lipid profiles
Subclinical hypothyroidism impairs lipid metabolism, particularly in females with high BMI. Triglycerides suppress free thyroxine levels, whereas elevated TSH levels correlate with increased creatinine levels. Our findings suggest a potential relationship between SCH and lipid alterations, warranting further investigation into targeted lipid management in these patients.
