Hypothyroidism and TTC
Hey ladies! I’m hoping to find some information about starting treatment for hypothyroidism while trying to get pregnant (and hopefully some success stories!)
I recently went to the doctor for my annual physical, and just found out that I might have hypothyroidism (my TSH was nearly 4). My doctor has prescribed a low dose of Synthroid to lower my levels because my husband and I are TTC.
Now for a little backstory; I’ve gotten pregnant twice this year, but both resulted in miscarriages (12 weeks, then 8 weeks). We have been diligently trying for our rainbow baby since June with no luck. My doctor said my thyroid issues may have caused our previous losses or could be a result of the miscarriages.
I’ve been researching hypothyroidism and Synthroid, and I’m getting mixed info about moving forward TTC. Has anyone suffered recurrent miscarriages or struggled become pregnant, but had a successful pregnancy after beginning medication? If yes, how long did it take to lower your levels or ultimately become pregnant?
Any and all advice is welcome and very appreciated!
