In the present study30 samples were taken from people infected with cutaneous leishmaniasis (12 females and 18 males) and (10) healthy individuals as a control group. The samples were collected from (1/9/2016) to (1/2/2017). The mini Vidas
device were used to examine the (TSH,T3,T4.GH) and the haemacounter devise used to count the (WBC, Lymphocytes, neutrophil. Results showed significant differences (p≤ 0.001) between males and females, while there were nosignificant
differences in age… However, the levels of GH, TSH and T3 were significantly different as compared to the control group… On other hand, no significant differences in the level of T4 hormone were compared to the control group. WBC counts were significantly different (p≤ 0.002) as compared to the control group.
While, there were no significant differences in the count of (neutrophils and lymphocytes) as compared to the control group. The study found the infection by cutaneous leishmaniasis did not have arisk for hormones levels that measured by
searching with confidence level (95%).
