Data of maternal and fetal out come collected. Results:100 pregnant women with thyroid dysfunction during the study.95 had high TSH and 5 low TSH. Mean maternal age was 25.89 years. 43% Primi gravida and 57 % multigravida.64% of hypothyroid pregnant women are overweight and obese.52% had previous history of thyroid dysfunction. The mean gestational age of delivery was 37.5 weeks, spontaneous vaginal birth 46%, assisted vaginal delivery 2% ,LSCS 52% Outcome of pregnancy in thyroid dysfunction was pre-eclampsia 20% abruptio placenta 6% gestational diabetes mellitus 6% abortion 3% oligohydramnios 13% IUGR 23.8% preterm delivery 47%. Foetal outcome low birthweight 37%, foetal distress 31.7%, NICU admissions 12.9%, stillbirth 5%, and neonatal death 5.9%.
