Overview
Thyroid dysfunction was first associated to pregnancy by Dr. W.E.H. Robertson, Newzeland physician, latter awarded the Sir Charles Hastings Prize for his essay in 1946. He diagnosed postpartum patients with symptoms of hypothyroidism after pregnancy and their improvement on treatment with thyroid extracts in 1946."www.moh.govt.nz" (PDF).
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- 1946: Postpartum thyroid dysfunction was first discovered by Dr. W.E.H. Robertson, Newzeland physician, who diagnosed postpartum patients with symptoms of hypothyroidism after pregnancy and their improvement on treatment with thyroid extracts.[1]
- 98-138 AD: PPT was first observed by Soranus, Roman gynecologist, as neck swelling after birth of baby which he published in book Gynaecia.[2]
- 1308-1340: Postpartum thyroid dysfunction was first observed in pictures of Madonna Enthroned by Duccio and Lorenzetti holding child in lap with Goiter which later proved by Dr Glinoer D 1997 due to iodine deficiency leading to postpartum thyroid dysfunction.[3]
- 1786: Parry CH , British physician, who observed signs of hyperthyroidism in postpartum women which he described in his paper published in the posthumous publication.[4]
- 1868: Dr. Armand Trousseau, observed signs of hypothyroidisum in postpartum patients who got relief from symptoms on end of postpartum and establishment of menstrual cycle or conception but he could not connect relation of hypothyroidism to postpartum. His literature says "goitre occurring in pregnant women is apparently due to pregnancy, while that of exophthalmos is seemingly cured by pregnancy""Lectures on clinical medicine, delivered at the Hotel-Dieu, Paris. Translated and edited with notes and appendices by P. Victor Bazire : Trousseau, Armand, 1801-1867 : Free Download & Streaming : Internet Archive".
- 1888: Dr. Sawin, was first to report postpartum hypothyroidism case number 16 in the seminal report of myxedeoma.[5]
- 1888: Sir H. Bryan Donkin, British physician, associated symptoms of hypothyroidism related to pregnancy which got better after the end of postpartum period.[6]
- 1891: Dr. George R. Murray, English physician, who successfully treated hypothyroid patient after miscarriage with sheep extract of thyroid.[7]
- 1953: Danowski and colleagues, compared levels of serum protein-bound iodine (PBI) during and after pregnancy and postpartum period, and found them low in postpartum and improving after postpartum period.[8]
- 1961: Parker and Beierwaltes found antithyroid antibodies decreasing in pregnancy and increasing in postpartum period.[9]
- In 1982, Amino and colleagues were the first to discover the association between postpartum period and the development of transient hyperthyroidism and/or hypothyroidism with prevalence of 5.5% of 505 Japanese women.[10]
Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies
- In 1976, Anti-thyroid microsomal antibodies were observed correlation to postpartum thyroisits by Nobuyuki Amino.[11]
- in 1997, Study conducted to related thyroid hormone and iodine levels in PPT.[12]
- In 2011, Dr. Stagnaro Green published a study in which PPT was found in relation with type 1 DM.[13]
- In 2007, Negro R published study showing reduction in incidence of PPT with selenium treatment during pregnancy.[14]
Impact on Cultural History
Famous Cases
- The following are a few famous cases of disease name:
- Dr. Terry Davis was first to find anti-TPO antibodies in patient who suffered loss of pregnancy.[15]
