Kidney disease is one of the causes of death in many countries around the world. This study found that chronic kidney disease affects thyroid hormone formation, release, and storage. The results show a decrease in T3 and T4 thyroid hormones and an increase in TSH hormone in both sexes and people of different ages. The research aims to study the effect of chronic kidney disease on the thyroid gland’s activity and its deficiency’s effect on health ailments. Results showed a significant decrease in T3 concentration in patients at the probability level (p ≤ 0.05) (0.8±0.1) compared with the control group (1.0±0.1). Additionally, a significant decrease in T4 concentration at the probability level (p ≤ 0.05), (6.8±1.5) compared with the control group (8.7±0.9) and a significant increase in TSH concentration at the probability level (p ≤ 0.05), (4.8±0.6) compared with the control group (1.2±0.5). The CDK affects thyroid hormones; low T3 and T4 are the most common thyroid dysfunction. High TSH, enlarged thyroid gland, hypothyroidism, thyroid dysfunction.
