This study aimed to determine whether prolonged TSH suppression confers an additional burden on postmenopausal health by comprehensively evaluating cardiovascular health (CVH), quality of life (QoL), muscle mass, and bone health using menopause-specific assessment tools.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A cross-sectional study was conducted involving three groups of postmenopausal women 107 patients with DTC receiving TSH suppression therapy following total thyroidectomy for \u22653 years, 80 women receiving levothyroxine (LT4) replacement for primary hypothyroidism, and 97 euthyroid controls. Women with cognitive impairment, a history of osteoporosis, or cardiovascular disease were excluded. CVH was assessed using Life\u2019s Essential 8 (LE8) score, carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT), and electrocardiography. QoL was assessed using the Utian QoL (UQoL) Scale, cognition by the Mini-Mental State Examination, body composition by bioelectrical impedance analysis, and bone density by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Women with DTC demonstrated significantly lower LE8 scores, lower UQoL scores, higher cIMT values, higher prevalence of osteoporosis, and reduced muscle mass than those in the other two groups (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.003, and\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.017, respectively).
