Hello, thanks for the query. Madam, I am sure your doctor must have informed about what steps need to be taken during pregnancy for a hypothyroid patient. During the gestation period (9 months of pregnancy) it is essential to test thyroid profile once a month (once every 4 weeks). Because tsh needs to be specifically monitored. In 1st trimester it should be 0.1 to 2.5 mu/l, 2nd trimester 0.2 to 3.00 mu/l & in 3rd trimester 0.3 to 3 mu/l for appropriate growth and for normal or expected out come of pregnancy. Now as your tsh is much higher than the recommended range, increase the dosage of levothyroxine to 25 mcg per day. Then check the levels again after 4 weeks. If you have any questions please do come back. Thanks.

Hello I am 26 years old, I am in my 1st trimester. My tsh reading is 4.15 ml and antitpo is 13. 96 ml. Doctors said that it's normal, but still they have prescribed me thyronorm 25 mg tablet. Is this okay to take? Does this have any side effects?

No .thyroid as such is good for the development of a baby and there is generally an increased requirement of it during pregnancy (for fetus of course). Less levels of thyroid is bad but a slight excess would not affect.

Whichever your doctor say. Don’t mistrust her. Thyronorm is very good. But dose also need to b increased in pregnancy so check about that.

Their many other causes of infertility, raised tsh shows their might be some imbalance in hormones, which can be corrected by taking thyronorm and can be controlled by taking medication, you try for your pregnancy, don't stop thyronorm without discussing with doctor.

I have been trying for the 2nd pregnancy since last month. My first child is 3 years old. This month's period date is may 5 and I am having 30 days cycle. I went to take a usg scan and thyroid test on may 11th. My tsh is 5.71 now and started taking thyronorm 25 mcg from may 12th. My usg report looks normal and no pcod. But the endometrial thickness is 4.7 mm. Do these things affect infertility, will I be able to conceive this month.

Repeat the thyroid test after a month. Also get an amh level done. Endometrial thickness usually is not of much consequence in fertility issues initially but you may require a hysteroscopy if this persists even in later part of your cycle.

Hi. Your usg is normal and endometrium is also good for day 6 of periods. Thyroid needs control and since you have started medicine repeat tsh after 6 weeks to know if thyroid is controlled. If not dose will be increased. Till then you keep trying and take folic acid also.
