Lybrate-user ji, Thanks for the query. It is necessary for you to bring down TSH level to around 2 mU/L if you are desiring to go for pregnancy. Since the TSH level is not mentioned it is difficult to comment. Through the gestation period TSH should be around 2 mU/L only. Otherwise fetal development and outcome of pregnancy will be affected. Secondly it is better if you try and reduce weight by at least 5% of present. Your ideal body weight should be around 55 kgs. Thanks.
