Introduction: In this study, we aimed to reveal the mean platelet volume (MPV) change with treatment in patients with hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism.

Materials and methods: Two groups were retrospectively evaluated as 200 patients (21 male, 179 female) with hypothyroidism and 200 patients (26 male, 174 female) with hyperthyroidism. Before and after treatment in the outpatient follow. MPV values were compared.

Results: There is significant difference between MPV values before (8.8fL(6.1–12.1), 8.78fL (6.7–13)) and after (9.1fL (7–14), 9fL(6–12)) treatment in hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism groups respectively and also MPV values increased in both groups after treatment (P=0.001).

Conclusion: The reason for the changes in MPV in our study can be explained in terms of the effect of the treatment on inflammatory period.
