My thyroid came slightly high in blood test and doc started medicine. Bit worried what effect it has on baccha and the pregnancy. Anyone managing thyroid during pregnancy, how was ur experience?
Actually, I was told that thyroid can make it a bit difficult to conceive or can cause issues early in pregnancy. My doctor started me on a very low dose pill to normalize it first. It's best to consult a good gynac to guide you gently.
Yes, thyroid levels can affect the baby's growth if left unchecked. Just take your daily morning tablet on an empty stomach as your doctor advised, and you'll be completely fine.
Untreated thyroid can affect the baby's growth, but there is absolutely no need to panic if you are on medication. Just take your pill on an empty stomach first thing in the morning and wait 45 minutes before having tea or breakfast. Get your blood tested every 4-6 weeks.
I felt so worried when my TSH came out high in my first trimester. I felt like it was my fault, but my gynac explained it's very common because of pregnancy hormones. Once I started the thyroid medicine, my baby grew perfectly healthy.
I know how scary it is to hear that your thyroid levels are off during pregnancy, I was so anxious about it too. But please breathe, as long as you take your daily morning thyroid tablet as prescribed, your baby will be completely safe. Just keep checking your TSH levels every month.
With PCOS, hormonal imbalances like thyroid are very common and require careful monitoring. If thyroid is untreated, it can affect the baby's brain development or lead to early labor. But don't worry, a simple daily tablet recommended by your endocrinologist keeps everything under control.
