Aim. Of the given research is to study thyroid hormones dynamics in patients with Ascaris lumbricoides before deworming and after compared to a healthy control group. Matherial and method. 104 patients with Ascaris lumbricoides aged 18—59 were under the supervision before deworming and after. 30 apparently healthy people according to age and gender presented a control group. Results and discussion.Triiodothyronine and thyroxine decrease as well as thyroid stimulating hormone increase have been diagnosed in intestinal phase of ascariasis. Thyroid hormones level dynamics has improved after deworming. Conclusion. Thyroid maladjustment, resulted in triiodothyronine (p 0,05) decrease in patients with intestinal phase of ascariasis has been revealed. The given maladjustment suggests remodeling thyroid function interventions.
