Can thyroid cause problems in pregnancy?

Yes, maintaining optimal thyroid levels is very important for a healthy pregnancy. After our long IVF journey, we monitored my TSH levels every single month to ensure the baby's development went smoothly.

I completely understand how scary it is to see a high thyroid report, I went into a total panic state when mine came back abnormal. But honestly, as long as you take your daily morning tablet and do regular blood tests, everything will be absolutely fine.

Oh yes, my thyroid decided to go crazy right along with my hormones! But don't worry, taking that tiny pill every morning is a small price to pay to keep things under control while you grow a human.
