During pregnancy, when human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) concentrations are highest, there is a transient suppression of serum thyrotropin (TSH). In normal pregnancy, TSH concentrations generally remain within nonpregnant reference intervals; however, in some patients TSH is suppressed. Here we sought to extend previous studies to examine the relationship between very high serum concentrations of hCG (&gt;200,000 IU/L) and the thyroid hormones TSH and free thyroxine (FT(4)). The objective of this study was to determine: 1) if there is an hCG concentration above which TSH concentrations are suppressed (&lt; or =0.2 microIU/mL); 2) how thyroid hormone concentrations change in response to changes in hCG concentrations; and 3) the clinical symptoms in patients with such extremely elevated hCG concentrations.

Serum Human Chorionic Gonadotropin Concentrations Greater than 400,000 IU/L Are Invariably Associated with Suppressed Serum Thyrotropin Concentrations
