Also to the test statistics were used to test the hypotheses at a significance level of p <0.05.
Results: the rate of the TSH levels decrease in all the subjects as well as the athlets group, which is not significant in any of them. Inaddition tht average TSH levels of the reaserch subjectswere at a normal level.
