Hi, I have been TTC for 1 yr, eventually got diagnosed underactive with TSH of 8.9, started 25mg levothyroxin in October. Am convinced that thyroid had something to do with difficulty getting pg but that's another thread.
5 weeks later (4 weeks ago) it had come down to 5.5, dosage (after pushing for it) increased to 50mg, then last week I got my BFP!! I am now between 5 and 6 weeks, I think.
Going for next blood test on Wednesday. GP seems to think that under 4 is ok but dr google is convinced that if pg you need to aim for between 1 and 2.5.
Worried that she won't give me any more prescription if I get down to about 4 though has admitted that I need to get checked more regularly when pg.
Any others out there with hypothyroid- what TSH is safe in pg and do I need to worry about my baby (other than normal worrying of course!)
Thanks
