Went to the doc earlier this week because my dizziness has been increasing (I totally understand lightheaded / dizziness is common for all pregos) but a handful of times I have felt like I might pass out, so I called just to ask if this is normal and just deal with it or what. They wanted me to come in that day and took blood - doc called yesterday and said I have “Subclinical Hypothyroidism” and wants me to start taking a “super low dose” of hormone replacement pill every day.

I’ll take them if totally necessary for mine and babies health, but I’ve always been skeptical of medicines like if once I start taking this is it going to be needed the rest of my life? What could taking this affect negatively? They said ideally after giving birth levels will go back to normal and I can stop taking.

I plan to go to pharmacy in a few hours to get them and begin taking - wondering if anyone else has had this?
