Description
- Health karma is an evidence-backed concept of modern medicine.
- Whatever actions we take (our karma) contribute not only to present health (karma), but to our future health (karma).
- This phenomenon is especially pronounced in the antenatal period, where medical decisions may influence not only the mother’s health, but that of her unborn offspring as well.
- This monograph addresses thyroid health and disease in preconception, pregnancy and the postnatal period. The comprehensively written chapters detail the epidemiology, physiology, diagnosis and management aspect of thyroid disorders in obstetrics.
- The pregnancy-related medical, obstetric and gynecological management of these conditions is presented in a simplified manner.
- Important perspectives from biochemistry, ultrasonography, anesthesiology and public health are included in Pregnancy and Thyroid Disease.
- The eminent editors and authors share this painstakingly written monograph on obstetric thyroidology and hope for euthyroid karma, in pregnancy and beyond.
