Objective: To determine whether subclinical hypothyroidism is a factor associated with poor glycemic control in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: Observational, analytical and cross-sectional study, where 154 clinical histories of adult patients attended in the outpatient clinics of the endocrinology service of the Hospital de Alta Complejidad ""Virgen de la Puerta"" during the period 2021 - 2022, who met the selection criteria, were evaluated. To establish the association between the study variables, the Pearson's Chi-Square test was applied, considering significant if the probability of error was less than 5% (p < 0.05); to estimate the strength of association, the prevalence ratio (PR) was calculated, with its respective 95% confidence interval. Results: Of all the adult patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus with subclinical hypothyroidism, 21.3% presented poor glycemic control, while 26.7% presented good glycemic control. When comparing both groups, no statistically significant difference was observed (p=0.4409). Among the intervening variables, both in the bivariate and multivariate analysis, a significant association was observed between the time of evolution of DM2 and poor glycemic control, determining that patients with a time of evolution ≥10 years of DM2 had 2.76 times the risk of having poor glycemic control than patients with <10 years of DM2 (95% CI: 1.395 - 5.460; p=0.004). Conclusions: Subclinical hypothyroidism is not a factor associated with poor glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
