When I started, I was prescribed Euthyrox for my thyroid, and for contraception, my doctor put me on a low-dose combined pill, specifically one with ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel. They told me to keep an eye on any changes in my symptoms, like sudden weight gain, fatigue, or irregular periods, because those could be signs of an issue with either my thyroid or the birth control. Fortunately, I didn’t have any problems with both meds together, but I always go for regular thyroid tests just to be sure. If you're ever unsure, I’d recommend discussing this combination with your doctor—they can tailor a prescription based on your needs.
