Haematological abnormalities particularly anaemia are frequently associated with thyroid disorders. A study was conducted on 300 patients (within age of 20–60 year) of clinically suspected thyroid disorders to estimate and to compare different erythrocyte indices. Thyroid disorders were detected in 121 partici­pants (40.4%) with 26% hypothyroidism and 14.4% hyperthyroidism. The frequency of subclinical and clinical hypothyroid­ism was 13.3% and 12.7% respectively. Anaemia was detected in 10.5% participants with normal thyroid profile and in 14.5% cases (17/121) with abnormal thyroid profile. Normo­cytic normochromic anaemia was mostly found. Present study shows hypothyroidism should be ruled out while investigating causes of anaemia. Early recognition and treatment of hypothyroidism is needed to prevent the risk of developing anaemia.
