The objective of our study were to determine and assess the correlation between serum ferritin and thyroid hormone levels among hypothyroid and euthroid subjects. Materials and methods: A cross sectional study was conducted on 100 patients with a history of hypothyroidism diagnosed based on their TSH levels, age group between 20-60 years. Samples collected from patients visiting Medicine OPD, IGIMS, Patna. with clinical symptoms of hypothyroidism tested for s. ferritin, s.fT3, s.fT4 and s.TSH were considered for the study.
