Background: Diabetes mellitus and thyroid diseases are the two common endocrinopathies seen in the adult population. Insulin and thyroid hormones are intimately involved in cellular metabolism. Excess or deficit of either of these hormones could result in the functional derangement of the other.
Methods: This study was conducted on the Type 2 diabetic patients to know the prevalence of thyroid abnormalities. The duration of study over a period of one year.
Results: The result of this study revealed that thyroid profile in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus 20% of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus had abnormal thyroid profile.
Conclusion: This study concludes that Routine screening for thyroid dysfunction in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients may be justified especially in females.
