Hashimotos pregnancy

[wowserclo]

Hey any other hashi women who have had babas found they had dosing issues when pregnant?

Or found the type of meds they were taking needed changing?

I know pregnant women have to be very carefully followed by their GPs or endocrinologists to ensure a safe delivery.

Thank you for the information. Encouraging to know that you can get pregnant. I'm beginning to lose hope. x

Some women become hypo after delivery. Maybe you should do a chart of when best to attempt to become pregnant.

Your bloods should be tested regularly. Most patients need an increase in dose

Obviously good vitamin levels are very important. B12 and folate especially

Hiya

I was given an extra 50mcg T4 at six weeks ( I was on T3 only before this) and then remained stable throughout. I became hyper a few months after birth but wasn't caught on time as they forgot to check this and I wasn't thinking clearly at the time so went on a little too long lol!

Are you seeing an endo to keep a close eye on it and I also had monthly blood tests and extra scans to check the babies development
