My GP daughter is expecting her first child in May. The results of her thyroid function test are T4 10.3, normal range 11.0 - 21.2 pmol/L, and TSH 1.87, normal range 0.27 - 4.20 mIU/L.
She understands that these results are normal in pregnancy and an obstetrician has said she does not need T4 prescribed.
Given my experience of being told everything is ‘normal’ when I have been unwell, leading me to self-source T3 and test privately, I am suspicious of anything the NHS says is normal regarding thyroid issues. And it concerns my grandchild.
I’d be grateful for your opinions.
