Women with hypothyroidism are more likely to experience pregnancy, delivery and neonatal complications. We found an association between hypothyroidism and hypertensive disorders, postpartum hemorrhage, transfusions, infections, preterm delivery and hysterectomy, among other problems. This data from a population sized database confirms the findings of smaller previous studies in the literature.
