Background: Sometimes, the patients with autoimmune thyroiditis show certain symptoms despite having serum thyroid hormone levels within the desired range. In addition, the dose of levothyroxine replacement may vary in the patients with hypothyroidism. These factors directly influence clinical practices and may, to some extent, be associated with other immunological/allergic diseases that accompany autoimmune thyroid diseases (ATDs).
