On the other hand, the increase in the mother&amp;#39;s blood volume during pregnancy may be associated with a decrease in the concentration of nutrients and, as a result, a decrease in their concentration in the urine. During pregnancy, maternal iodine is transferred to the fetus through the placenta and is the only source of iodine for the fetus during pregnancy, so the iodine status of pregnant women directly affects the growth and development of the fetus. Insufficient iodine intake during pregnancy can lead to a range of adverse reproductive outcomes, including increased risk of perinatal and infant mortality, and intellectual impairment in children. The most severe consequence of iodine deficiency is cretinism, a condition characterized by severe physical and mental developmental delays. Iodine deficiency during pregnancy can cause serious disorders in maternal and fetal thyroid function and lead to adverse consequences in pregnancy. Studies have shown that overt hypothyroidism due to severe iodine deficiency during pregnancy is associated with adverse outcomes including spontaneous abortion, gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, and gestational diabetes. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:9.0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif&quot;&gt;Mother&amp;#39;s thyroid hormone plays an important role in fetal brain development. The brain is especially sensitive to iodine deficiency during its formation in the early embryonic period and after birth. During pregnancy and early lactation, the iodine needed by children is completely taken from the mother. Insufficient iodine as well as excess may cause hypothyroidism. Indeed, iodine deficiency during pregnancy is the most important preventable cause of neurodevelopmental disorders worldwide and is an important global public health issue. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:9.0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;

In general, pregnant women need a 50% increase in iodine to produce enough thyroid hormone to meet the needs of the fetus, as well as to meet the needs of increased production and placental transfer of thyroid hormone, which is necessary for optimal fetal growth. In areas where iodine is sufficient, the mother&amp;#39;s thyroid gland increases its iodine absorption to maintain sufficient reserves inside the thyroid. However, in moderate to severe iodine deficiency, such adaptive mechanisms may fail to maintain adequate iodine stores (4). Accordingly, the daily requirement of iodine during pregnancy increases to 250 micrograms compared to 150 micrograms for non-pregnant women. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The development of the brain and central nervous system takes place from the second trimester of pregnancy to the age of 3 years. Breastfed infants are solely dependent on the adequate supply of iodine in breast milk for the synthesis of thyroid hormones, and the concentration of iodine in breast milk depends on the mother&amp;#39;s dietary intake. Therefore, low maternal iodine intake inevitably predisposes lactating women and their infants to iodine deficiency. Based on this, it is clear that during this period, the mother&amp;#39;s iodine intake should be optimal to provide enough iodine for the developing fetus. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Salt, enriched bread and water are the main sources of iodine. WHO recommends fortification of all dietary salt with iodine as an effective and safe strategy for the control and prevention of iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) for those living in iodine-deficient and iodine-sufficient areas. Adults need 150 micrograms of iodine per day, which varies from 90 to 290 micrograms per day based on the age and physiological status of the person. Pregnant and lactating women need more iodine than other adults. 220 to 250 micrograms per day during pregnancy and 250 to 290 micrograms per day during lactation are recommended.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-justify:kashida&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-kashida:0%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-autospace:none&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:9.0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif&quot;&gt;Current WHO recommendations indicate that although iodine supplementation during pregnancy is safe, it may not be justified in pregnant women with mild iodine deficiency living in iodine-sufficient countries&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-justify:kashida&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-kashida:0%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-autospace:none&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:9.0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif&quot;&gt;The timing of iodine supplementation seems to be very important in relation to pregnancy. All the evidence shows that iodine supplementation is most effective (probably the only effective agent) in preventing fetal neurologic damage if it is started before conception or in the first and early second trimester of pregnancy and continues throughout pregnancy. Given the timing of thyroid hormone action on the developing fetal brain, it is reasonable to start iodine supplementation for women prone to iodine deficiency before conception, if possible, to ensure adequate thyroid iodine stores.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-justify:kashida&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-kashida:0%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-autospace:none&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:9.0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif&quot;&gt;WHO, UNICEF, and ICCIDD/IGN recommend a daily dose of 250 mcg potassium iodide for lactating women. Alternatively, in countries where iodine deficiency is evident, and has not been corrected by a public iodized salt program, these authorities recommend an annual depot dose of 400 mg of iodized oil orally at 6-monthly intervals for the exclusive breastfeeding mother&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Considering the necessity of sufficient iodine for the development of the nervous system of the fetus and newborn and the increased need for iodine in pregnant and lactating women compared to other adults, it is recommended to take iodine supplements or iodine-rich foods during pregnancy and lactating.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:9.0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#0070c0&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</abstract>
