Martha Savaria Morris, et al. - Does hyperthyroidism adversely affect bone, and does it contribute to postmenopausal osteoporosis?
Summary: A recent study of healthy, postmenopausal Koreans with no history of thyroid disease reported associations between both below-normal and low-normal circulating thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels and osteoporosis. In the present research, we used data collected in the third U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey to examine associations between TSH and bone status in healthy, postmenopausal American women
Outcomes: These results may reflect the existence of clinically significant thyroid hyperfunction in women with serum TSH. TSH itself may play a role in the preservation of bone after menopause
