    Abstract

    Background: Thyroid hormone fluctuations play a crucial role in the physiological and metabolic functions of the body. These fluctuations can significantly impact the health of postmenopausal women, leading to various clinical implications. Aim: This study aims to evaluate the cross-sectional fluctuations of thyroid hormones in postmenopausal women. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with a sample size of 200 postmenopausal women. The study included participants meeting specific inclusion criteria while excluding others based on predefined factors. Thyroid hormone levels were measured, and data were analyzed using appropriate statistical methods. Results: The study found significant variations in the levels of thyroid hormones among the participants. These fluctuations were associated with various factors, including age, body mass index (BMI), and duration of menopause. Conclusion: The findings suggest that postmenopausal women experience significant thyroid hormone fluctuations, which could potentially impact their health status. Further studies are recommended to explore the implications of these findings.
