Out of Normal Range TSH and Pregnancy02/05/2010 |
Hi, I am 29 yrs old female, married for 1.5 yrs. I am on thyroid medication (thyronorm 50)since last 8-9 mnths. My TSH levels keep on fluctuating between 2-6, recent level being 5.58. T3 and T4 are in normal range. Pelvic Sonography report is normal. My physician thinks that it is ok for me to try for conception. But my concern is that if i do conceive, would my child have any mental or visual defects because of my high TSH? What precautions would i need to take? Please guide.
Thank you for visiting NetWellness. This question would be better answered in the Thyroid Diseases topic. Please look in that topic for an answer to your question.
