My TSH came slightly high in first trimester and im on tablet, doc is monitoring. But i also want to manage it with food and lifestyle if possible. Anyone managed their thyroid better with diet during pregnancy?
I know how stressful it is to get that thyroid report, my anxiety was through the roof when it happened to me. Please don't worry too much. While eating clean like adding walnuts and avoiding soy helps, make sure you take the medication if prescribed because baby needs those hormones.
I am currently planning my pregnancy and have mild thyroid, so I was wondering the same thing! Is it possible to manage it just with diet changes like cutting gluten, or are medicines absolutely compulsory? Would love to know what worked for you guys.
Listen, thyroid is not something you play with naturally during pregnancy. Take your empty stomach thyroid pill daily without fail, as prescribed by your doctor. You can do yoga and avoid cabbage or cauliflower, but medicine is a must for baby's health.
Omg thyroid during pregnancy is so scary, I literally spent nights googling every single symptom! Honestly, you can't rely only on natural ways for this because baby's brain development depends on it. Just follow whatever your gynac says blindly, eat healthy, and please don't Google like I did!
Keep faith in God, dear, everything will be fine. Along with your regular medicines, try to keep a peaceful mind and do some light morning pranayama. God has given your body the strength to handle this, just eat fresh ghar ka khana and stay positive.
To be honest, you shouldn't try to control thyroid purely naturally during pregnancy. Diet and lifestyle changes like sleeping well and reducing stress are great, but medical management is absolutely crucial here. Please consult your endocrinologist and take the exact dosage they recommend.
