Abstract:Thyroid disorders are complex and polygenic, and thus result from the interaction of many genetic variants. Due to a central role of the thyroid hormones in the body, their dysfunction can have a significant impact on the reproductive health in men and women. Mapping the shared genetic component and relationships between thyroid and reproductive health traits will improve the understanding about the interplay between those domains. Here, a large-scale genetic analysis of thyroid traits (hyper- and hypothyroidi… Show more
