Cocker_crazy,

It's recommended that the TSH of women planning conception should be in the low-normal range 0.4 - 2.5. There can be problems with higher TSH but I'm not aware there is any problem with lower TSH.

FT3 is good. Was FT4 not tested?

Levothyroxine is usually increased by 25-50mcg when pregnancy is confirmed to ensure good foetal development.

I hope all goes well for you.

Think I will show it to ivf consultant im just petrified of them cancling round although I want everything perfect too x
