It has been carried out on the sera of (106) Patients diagnosed with hyperthyroidism collected during their attendance to the endocrinology department, Tikrit teaching hospital – Tikrit and Kirkuk general hospital – Kirkuk / Iraq, compared with (50 ) samples of normal individuals used as control. The results indicated that the rate of hyperthyroidism is the highest among the age group (40-50) years old.
