Hi I had a thyroidectomy 4yrs ago and I've been trying to conceive every since but I've had no luck. I'm just wondering if something could be wrong.

Keitha1982,
Conception can be difficult if TSH is high. The BTA recommend women planning conception should have TSH in the low-normal range 0.4 - 2.5 with FT4 in the upper range. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/260...

As you are now hypothyroid it is difficult for many to conceive and some have miscarriages.
I am assuming you are on levothyroxine alone? This is a link which may be helpful:
