I had thyroid even before pregnancy and now my values are slightly up again. Gynac has adjusted things but I still feel so tired all day. How do u all manage it, any diet tips that helped?
The endocrinologist at my hospital was very clear that self-treating thyroid is risky. You need regular blood tests every 4-6 weeks because dosage changes. Please ask your hospital staff to schedule these tests.
Honestly, I panicked so much when my thyroid report came high, but my doc reassured me it's very common. Once you start the daily medicine, the levels come under control easily. Just take the tablet daily and relax!
Hypothyroidism during pregnancy is purely managed by synthetic hormone tablets. There are no safe home remedies that can replace this medication, so please take the exact dose your doctor prescribes. Get your TSH checked regularly.
Don't worry, just keep a fixed routine to take your thyroid medicine first thing in the morning. Keep the bottle on your bedside table with a water bottle so you never forget. Simple daily tracking is all it takes.
I had thyroid issues and had to take my medication diligently every morning on an empty stomach. Even during my C-section recovery, the doctors monitored my levels. Just stick to your daily pill, it's very manageable.
