Hi all, I just got my blood tests back and I'm a bit worried about my thyroid levels. Can anyone tell me what is considered a normal range for thyroid during pregnancy? My doctor hasn't given me the full details yet.
Generally, doctors like to keep TSH levels below 2.5 in the first trimester, but it can vary. I had normal delivery even with minor thyroid issues, so don't worry at all. Just take your pill on time and stay positive.
Haan, pregnancy me thyroid levels change hote rehte hain na. Doctor har trimester me test karwate hain check karne ke liye. Gynac se consult karo, woh report dekh kar sahi dawai bata denge.
I am planning to conceive soon and my doctor asked me to get my thyroid checked first. Is it really that important for the baby's growth? Would love to know what levels are considered safe before starting.
It is completely normal to feel scared when you see abnormal thyroid numbers on your report. But please don't stress, thyroid is very easily managed with a tiny pill every morning. Just talk to your doctor and they will set the right dose.
I just got my reports and my TSH is 3.1. My doctor adjusted my medicine slightly, but I'm still a bit anxious. Has anyone else had similar levels in their second trimester and delivered safely?
Thyroid reference ranges are different during pregnancy compared to normal times. Usually, TSH should be under 2.5 or 3.0 depending on your trimester. You must get your blood test done empty stomach and show the report to your gynac for correct dosage.
Dealing with thyroid tests along with extreme morning sickness is so draining, I feel you. Just try to take your thyroid medicine first thing in the morning with a little water, even if you feel nauseous. Your doctor will manage the dose, don't worry.
