No Blood, No needle, No visit to hospital, you can do yourself at home with water. A thin layer of transparent screen like structure hangs in front of the abdominal muscles known as peritoneum. This peritoneum protects the abdominal structures and the muscle. This can also be used for performing dialysis which is carried out when the functioning of kidney gets affected. In peritoneal dialysis a thin and soft catheter is placed in the person s belly one week before performing the procedure.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
What do you mean by "complete diagnosis" Since she has goiter as mentioned, that itself is the diagnosis. To know whether surgery is needed there are some investigations to be done, like Ultra sonographhy of thyroid, hormone levels and if needed FNAC. That will give an exact idea of the situation. Thanks.

You have not mentioned thyroid profile report. If hypothyroid or hyperthyroid treat accordingly. If thyroid profile normal then wait for some time it will become normal as it has reduced by more than 50% in few months post delivery.

The thyroid gland, in the lower front of the neck, releases hormones in the bloodstream that affect almost every part of your body, from your brain and heart, to your skin and muscles. It also controls metabolism which is the process of changing the food you eat into energy. When the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone, it is called hypothyroidism.

Symptoms of hypothyroidism include:

Delaying operation for 9 months will not cause any problem ,but you will be suffering from pain (dysmenorrhea) and menorrhagia (increase bleeding) for 9 more months.
You can go for mirena insertion for the time being.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Thyromegaly tends to occur due to either iodine deficiency or due to other causes like thyrotoxicosis and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. If pressure symptoms are there then surgery is the only option to relieve those. It would have been better if you had mentioned actual T3, T4 & TSH values. Also it is better to check Anti-TPO antibodies. Cost of surgery the specific hospital will only be able to give. Thanks. Thanks.
