Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • association between thyroid function parameters and bone densitometry

    association of Subclinical hypothyroidism which represents a state with increased values of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and normal values of thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). The disorder is asymptomatic, and the diagnosis is made based on the results of laboratory findings when the level of TSH reaches values above 4.0 mU/ with osteoporesis disorder on bone densitometry. Dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is currently the standard for assessing bone mineral density (BMD), in this study dxa scan will be used on the forearm to assess T score and Z score.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • - To detect early stages of bone affection in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism

    1 year
