Pregnant or not

[Beepi]

Hello

I've had underactive thyroid since my 1st baby in 2015. I went through a heck of a journey to get my levels right as she's kept saying my test were normal at TSH 4.5. I do also have Hashimotos and trying to wean down to gluten free. In year 2016 I had a miscarriage duebto my thyroid being over TSH 5.8. Now 2018 me and my hubby have been given the go ahead to try for a baby. This is my first month trying. My levels of TSH is 1.34 (very good) and I have regular periods just always 2-3 days early. Never never late. Now I am 3 days late no period. I have done a test including first response and they are all negative. Im worried as we already have hormonal problems with hashi/thyroid the HCG is not picking up? I know my body and I'm NEVER late! Also if I'm am pregnant one and to increase my tablets to 25mg butbi can't if I keep getting negatives and not sure if im pregnant. Any suggestions please?

Hello Beepi,

I know exactly what you mean about never being late. I’m 42 and a 32 year veteran of aunt flow. I ovulate late or early but my period is always on time literally to 7pm on the day! The moon can be at any stage!

I’d suggest you take the early pregnancy tests and book an appointment at your doctors. You might not have enough TCG in your urine yet. As it’s early days, remember that some may not find out for another month or so. So you have like a month to play with. Don’t panic because stress will make the situation worse and if not pregnant might stall your period even more.

And take into consideration your method of contraception as some take a while to leave the system.

There are other factors.

I wish you luck. Ebony
