【 摘 要 】

Background. The purpose of the research was to evaluate the quality of life in women with Graves’ disease after radioactive iodine therapy. Materials and methods. We have exa­mined 79 women with Graves’ disease after radioactive iodine treatment. The first group included 23 patients in euthyroid state, the second one — 56 women with hypothyroidism. The control group consisted of 15 women without thyroid patho­logy. Results. Women with Graves’ disease had a deterioration in the quality of life manifested by low indexes of both physical (by 30.3 %) and psychological (by 26.6 %) components of health. Conclusions. After radioactive iodine therapy, there was a significant improvement in the quality of life in women with Graves’ disease, and the total physical component increased by 38.2 %, psychological — by 33.4 %. Before treatment, the qua­lity of life of women with Graves’ disease was significantly lower compared to the control group.
