Hi all. I have had hypothyroidism since I was 16 and have been stable on 150mcg since i was about 21 (now 28). I had no idea of the possible related fertility issues until I started thinking about TTC.
I've recently had my TSH checked and it was 3.90, which is within the normal range (under 4.5) but much higher than is recommended for pregnancy (2.5). My GP is not concerned and said my dose doesn't need to be increased unless I conceive. Does anyone have any experience of this? I'm wondering whether I should get a second opinion and also don't want to delay starting TTC too much longer.
