Abstract: Background: HIV infected patients are often encountered with abnormal thyroid function test results including sick euthyroid syndrome and at a times detectable in the early phase of disease as well as in late phase. Among thyroid dysfunctions asymptomatic conditions are more prevalent, including subclinical hypothyroidism and isolated low free thyroxine levels. So this study will probe into the abnormality in thyroid function in HIV infected subjects receiving HAART. Aim: To study the prevalence of abnormal thyroid function among HIV patients receiving HAART. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at tertiary care center in collaboration with ART center among HIV positive patients attending OPD and IPD, over a period of 27 months. Results: Out of 50 patients included in the study 66% were males, 34% were females, 86% showed euthyroid status, 10% showed subclinical hypothyroidism, 2% showed hypothyroidism, 2% showed isolated low T4 levels. Prevelance of thyroid dysfunctions were more in female 17%(n=3) than in male 12%(n=4). Conclusions: Thyroid dysfunction is common in HIV patients on HAART. Subclinical hypothyroidism was the most common abnormality observed in the study population. There was no significant correlation between CD4 cell count and thyroid abnormality. There was no statistical significance in association between drug regimen, duration of drug regimen and duration of illness with thyroid dysfunction.
