This study was prepared on 65 obese women attended to Baghdad Teaching Hospital and 50 women of normal weight as a control group from January to August 2024. The results showed that the mean of patients ages was (29.9 ± 0.988) years and 40(61.5%) of them were from rural areas in comparison to 25(38.5%) from urban areas. The variation (P=0.001) for 33(50.07%) and 50 (100%) patients and control group respectively of (overweight) women whose body weight (90≥100 Kg). The serum T3 hormone level was (P<0.01) for patients (3.17±1.41) and (1.27±0.64) for control, while the T4 hormone level was (P>0.05) for patients (3.63±1.00) and controls (3.86±1.72) with the TSH level was(P<0.01) for patients (2.62±1.07) and controls (1.11±0.94). Moreover, the results demonstrated that the T4 hormone level in women with Maximum body Mass was 32 (3.47±1.19), with (P>0.05), while it was in Minimum body mass was 33 (3.78±0.77) with (P>0.05), Furthermore, the levels of TSH hormone in women was 32(2.21± 1.23) and 32 (3.02±0.69) with (P<0.01) for both maximum and minimum body mass respectively, and the level of serum glucose in 32 Maximum body mass women was (3.28±2.21), while it was 33 in women with Minimum body mass was (4.22±1.35) with (P<0.05).
