Introduction: The thyroid gland has a significant impact on the morphofunctional state of the organs
of the female reproductive system, the regulation of the ovarian-menstrual cycle, as well as the age-related
decline of the generative and endocrine function of the ovaries.
Material and methods: The study involved 102 women aged 49–62 years, who were divided into 2 groups.
Group I included 54 patients who suffered from manifestations of the menopausal syndrome, and the control
group comprised 48 patients whose menopausal period proceeded physiologically. All patients underwent clinical, laboratory, and instrumental examinations in accordance with the requirements of modern protocols.
Results: A thyroid dysfunction has a significant impact on the course of menopause. In women who suffered from manifestations of pathological menopause, the thyroid dysfunction was detected in 64.81% of patients, with the most frequently diagnosed being hypothyroid state (61.11%). Among thyroid diseases, chronic
autoimmune thyroiditis prevailed (37.04%), and diffuse focal and focal changes were observed in 24.07% of
cases. In patients with uncomplicated menopause, thyroid pathology was diagnosed 3.9 times less frequently.
No autoimmune thyropathies were identified among the patients in the control group; focal pathology (category
TI-RADS1 and TI-RADS2) was detected in 14.58% of cases.
Conclusions: Thyroid dysfunction accompanied by hypothyroidism can be considered as a risk-stratification
factor for the development of pathological menopause.
