i have hypothyroism since teenager and is on medicine since then. After being pregant, the specialist will monitor your level closely with blood test and adjust the medicine if need to. dont need to worry too much!

Do you know if she looks at T3 or T4 indicator for hypothyroidism ? I’m currently hypo in my second trimester. I have hyperthyroidism for the longest time before my condition stablised 2years back.

Same detected hypothyroidism and she asked me to eat thyroxine. I checked back with my endocrine doctor and he say my readings are normal. Do you know if your gynae looks at “free T3 or T4 readings?

you might need to be on medication, i was overactive then become under active so i have to stop the medication

Yes .. I’m having thyroid and taking pills in morning. It’s normal to have thyroid in pregnancy.

My friend had. don't worry . follow the doctor's guide lines.

Same. Doctor prescribed medicine
