Abstract
Low maternal FT4 in third trimester of gestation is associated with abnormal ADHD scores and a significant risk of ADHD in the offspring. Appropriate correction of gestational hypothyroxinaemia by means of sufficient iodine supply in the preconception period or thyroxine supplementation very early in pregnancy may prevent future development of ADHD in the progeny.
