Overview

Thyroid dysfunction was first associated with pregnancy by Dr. W.E.H. Robertson, physician from Newzeland, latter awarded the Sir Charles Hastings Prize for his essay in 1946. Dr. Robertson diagnosed postpartum patients with symptoms of Hypothyroidism and demonstrated their improvement on treatment with thyroid extracts in 1946.

  • In 98-138 AD, Postpartum thyroid dysfunction was first observed by Soranus, a Roman gynecologist, as neck swelling after birth of baby which he published in his book Gynaecia.[2]
  • In 1786, Parry CH, a British physician, observed signs of hyperthyroidism in postpartum women. He described these signs in his paper published in the posthumous publication.[4]
  • In 1868, Dr. Armand Trousseau, observed signs of hypothyroidism in postpartum patients who improved later on with normal menstrual cycle and conception but could not establish a relation between hypothyroidism and postpartum period. Dr. Trousseau's explained the establishment of goiter "apparently" due to pregnancy, and that the associated exophthalmos improves later on.

  • In 1982, Amino and colleagues found the association between postpartum period and the development of transient hyperthyroidism and/or hypothyroidism with prevalence of 5.5% of 505 Japanese women.[11]

Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies

  • In 1976, anti-thyroid microsomal antibodies were observed in correlation to postpartum thyroidits by Nobuyuki Amino.[12]
  • In 1997, a study was conducted to find a relation between thyroid hormone and iodine levels in PPT.[13]
  • In 2007, Negro R demonstrated a reduction in incidence of PPT with selenium treatment during pregnancy.[14]
  • In 2011, Dr. Stagnaro Green demonstrated the association of PPT with type 1 DM.[15]
  • Dr. Terry Davis was first to find anti-TPO antibodies in patient who suffered loss of pregnancy.[16]
