This article focuses on the assessment of thyroid hormones in 64 pregnant women in Mauritius. Our study revealed that serum thyroid‐stimulating hormone was significantly raised in four pregnant women with normal serum‐free tri‐iodothyronine and serum‐free thyroxine. It was also noted that mean serum‐free tri‐iodothyronine was non‐significantly much lower in the pregnant women. It is concluded that the four pregnant women with an abnormally elevated serum thyroid‐stimulating hormone together with normal free thyroid hormones probably have subclinical hypothyroidism.
