Abstract
Latent subclinical hypothyroidism represents a particular problem in treatment for sterility, and can only be diagnosed after the results of a TRH test have been obtained (delta TSH > 15 microE/ml). Bearing these results in mind and by the administration of thyroid gland hormones or combinations of gonadotropins or clomifen, pregnancy rates in women with anovulatory sterility can be improved.
