Levels
of thyroid function were defined as
euthyroidism (normal functioning)(thyroid - stimulating hormone [TSH], 0.45 - 4.49 mIU / L), subclinical hyperthyroidism (TSH < 0.45 mIU / L), and subclinical hypothyroidism (TSH ≥ 4.50 - 19.99 mIU / L) with normal thyroxine (a hormone that is made by the thyroid gland) concentrations.
Clinical manifestations
of HT are variable and commonly include diffuse or nodular goiter with
euthyroidism, subclinical hypothyroidism and permanent hypothyroidism.
Of the remaining 45 % who have test results consistent with
euthyroidism, 75 % on average improve or recover when treated on the assumption that they have thyroid hormone resistance.
