Thyroid function and reproduction are intimately connected. Pregnancy affects thyroid function and thyroid abnormalities affect many aspects of conception and pregnancy. The conference „The Thyroid and Reproduction“ explored these relationships in five sessions: - Aspects of assisted reproduction - Thyroid function in pregnancy - Management of thyroid disorders in pregnancy - After delivery - mother and child - Clinical cases and guidelines As thyroid dysfunction is common in pregnancy, this volume is useful to review current clinical management guidelines in addition to more basic aspects of thyroid function and disease in pregnancy. The book will appeal to clinical endocrinologists, obstetricians, internists as well as physiologists interested in reproduction.
