Background: Disorder of thyroid function is common during pregnancy and hypothyroidism is more common then hyperthyroidism affecting 3–5% of all pregnant women. Maternal hypothyroidism is associated with both maternal adverse effects like preeclampsia, ecclampsia, pregnancy induced hypertension and gestational diabetes mellitus and foetus complication like low birth weight, pre term birth, neurological deformities and abnormal presentation.Methods: In present study 120 patients with overt and subclinical hypothyroidism were included in this study. Detailed histories of patients were taken and clinical examination was done and data was collected in a predesigned Performa. We used standard diagnostic criteria for diagnosis of overt and subclinical hypothyroidism.Results: Pregnancy induced hypertension was found in 10% patient, Chronic hypertension was present in 1.6% patients, abortion in second trimester 1.6% patients, incomplete abortion in 4.18% patients. Missed abortion was present in 2.5% patients.Conclusions: Hypothyroidism during pregnancy is more common in primi. Most common age group was third decade and was commonly detected before 10 weeks of gestation. Pregnancy induced hypertension, oligohydramnios and preterm delivery was more common than abortion in second trimester and missed abortion.
Background: When there is change in colour, consistency, order and volume of discharge then it is called abnormal vaginal discharge and associated with vulvar pruritus, dyspareunia, dysuria and lower abdominal pain. There is variability in organism isolated and treatment used.Methods: Sexually active women in reproductive age group with complain of abnormal vaginal discharge were included in this study based in following inclusion and exclusion criteria. . A detailed history of patient was taken regarding nature of discharge, colour, smell along with dysuria, dyspareunia, itching of vulva and lower abdominal pain.Results: Out of 160 patients 88 patients have bacterial vaginosis. Trichomonas vaginitis was present in 7.5% patients. Candidiasis was present in 6.25% patients. Some patients were having more than one infection like Bacterial vaginosis and Trichomonas vaginitis was coexisting in 13.75%, Bacterial vaginosis + Candidiasis were present in 8.75% patients. Mixed infection was present in 8.75%.Conclusions: From present study we can conclude that vaginal discharge is more common in married women in young age. Patients commonly presented with curdy white discharge, pruritus vulva and lower abdominal pain. Erythema and excoriation in vulva were common presentation, followed by erythema of vagina. Nature of discharge was mucopurulent in most patients. Bacterial vaginosis was most common followed by Trichomonas vaginitis.
