My reports showed slightly high thyroid and now im a bit tense. Im 8 weeks and worried if this can affect the baby or the pregnancy. Doc has started me on something but pls share if anyone had this.
Haan na, thyroid can create a few issues if you ignore it. But if you take your pills on time every morning, everything goes smoothly. Just keep checking your TSH levels regularly, ho na.
Look, uncontrolled thyroid is risky, but controlled thyroid is absolutely no problem. Go to your gynac, get your blood tests done, and take the exact dosage they prescribe. Simple as that.
Thyroid issues are very common during pregnancy. As long as you take your daily medicine and check your levels regularly, your baby will be perfectly safe.
Please don't worry, many pregnant women have thyroid issues and deliver perfectly healthy babies. Just make sure you are regular with your medicines and doctor visits. I am here if you need to talk, stay calm.
Beta, thyroid is quite common nowadays, so don't take stress. Eat healthy, home-cooked food like bottle gourd juice if your doctor allows, but make sure to take your doctor's tablets daily. Modern medicine is necessary for this.
I managed my thyroid throughout my pregnancy while working full-time. All you need to do is take your thyroid tablet first thing in the morning on an empty stomach and test your levels every month. Don't skip your doctor appointments.
I had hypothyroid during my pregnancy and was so scared. My doctor adjusted my dose every few months based on regular blood tests, and my baby was born completely healthy. Regular follow-up with your endocrinologist and gynac is the key.
