Southern Medical Journal, 1980We have presented a case of "painless thyroiditis," a syndrome of transient hyperthyroidism with low 131I uptake and no local thyroid gland symptoms. Although the cause is not known, our patient had recurrences after each of her three pregnancies, strengthening the association of this disorder with the postpartum state.

Postpartum thyroiditis is a disorder which is morphologically similar to Hashimoto's thyroiditis, but differs clinically. The disorder presents with a transient period of thyrotoxicosis which may be so mild that it is clinically missed. Many of these patients subsequently develop hypothyroidism which also spontaneously resolves.
