I have hypothyroidism n the tsh levels shot up when I was pregnant with my daughter. I had thyroid disorder before pregnancy. Should I go for a second child? Will I face the same problem again? What are the chances of my daughter inheriting thyroid disorder since I had disturbed levels while she was in there?

The chances to have a Thyroid problem if there is a family history is more as compared to people who dont have a family history.But it doesnot mean that all those having a family history will surely acquire it although chances are more.You can plan for second baby and the same logic will apply on your second child as well.
