Abstract
Hyperprolactinemia is common in ScH, especially in those with TSH > 7.5 mIU/L. ROC analysis confirmed that TSH â¥Â 7.51 mIU/L in females and â¥Â 8.33 mIU/L in males had a sensitivity of â 50% with a very high specificity of > 90% in detecting hyperprolactinemia. Prolactin screening may be warranted in ScH with TSH > 7.5mIU/L, and may form an indication for treating ScH.
