एस्ट्राडियोल और लेवोथायरोक्सिन का इंटरैक्शन

Hypothyroidism Estrogen administration leads to increased thyroid-binding globulin (TBG) levels.

Patients with normal thyroid function can compensate for the increased TBG by making more thyroid hormone, thus maintaining free T 4 and T 3 serum concentrations in the normal range.

Patients dependent on thyroid hormone replacement therapy who are also receiving estrogens may require increased doses of their thyroid replacement therapy.

These patients should have their thyroid function monitored in order to maintain their free thyroid hormone levels in an acceptable range.

Increased thyroid-binding globulin (TBG) levels leading to increased circulating total thyroid hormone levels as measured by protein-bound iodine (PBI), T 4 levels (by column or by radioimmunoassay) or T 3 levels by radioimmunoassay.

…1: Drugs That May Alter T 4 and Triiodothyronine (T 3 ) Serum Transport Without Effecting Free Thyroxine (FT 4 ) Concentration (Euthyroidism) Drug or Drug Class Effect Clofibrate Estrogen-containing oral contraceptives Estrogens (oral) Heroin/Methadone 5-Fluorouracil Mitotane Tamoxifen These drugs may increase serum thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG) concentration.

Pregnancy, infectious hepatitis, estrogens, estrogen containing oral contraceptives, and acute intermittent porphyria increase TBG concentrations.
