Introduction: Hypothyroidism is one of the most common chronic diseases in pregnant women. It is defined by the level of thyroid hormones is lower than normal. Maternal thyroid hormones have key role for the fetus development.  Studies have shown that premature birth, abortion, intrauterine death of the fetus and preeclampsia are among the most important complications that are increased in patients with congenital hypothyroidism. In this study, the files of 300 pregnant women who referred to the health centers of Karaj city were examined. After conducting interviews with participants, the complications and risk factors of hypothyroidism during pregnancy were examined. The results show that the mother's family history of autoimmune diseases, the mother's autoimmune diseases and goiter are among the most important risk factors for the mother's subclinical hypothyroidism, and the mother's type 1 diabetes is the most important risk factor for the mother's clinical hypothyroidism. Also, preeclampsia is the most important complication of both types of hypothyroidism. On the other hand, the risk of IUFD and premature delivery is also higher in patients with clinical hypothyroidism.
Conclusion: As a result, with a more detailed examination of mothers with the mentioned risk factors, especially type 1 diabetes, hypothyroidism during pregnancy can be quickly identified and managed.
