Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction and objectives</h4> Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is a lack of thyroid hormone at birth, crucial for brain development. A nationwide screening program has been implemented in Iran since 2005, resulting in over 12 million infants being screened and more than 30,000 patients diagnosed and treated.
