Graves' disease is an autoimmune disease that most common cause of hyperthyroidism which is characterized by diffuse thyroid disease, thyrotoxicosis, and can be accompanied by orbitopathy and dermopathy. Age and gender are factors that are thought to influence the time it takes for GD patients to reach a euthyroid state who receive antithyroid drug therapy.

Data on 68 GD patients were taken using the total sampling method. Data were analyzed using the Cox Regression test with SPSS version 26 with a confidence level of 95%. Survival data will be displayed using the Kaplan Meier curve. This study showed that there was no relationship with age (p=0.064), but showed there was a relationship with gender (p=0.044) on the time to achieve euthyroidism in Graves' disease patients.
