TTC with Graves Disease

Hi, new here so please bear with me and my super long first post...

Does anybody have experience of conceiving whilst undergoing treatment for/ suffering from Graves Disease and associated hyperthyroidism?

I’m in this position myself and seem to see nothing but negative information and stories on Google about how difficult or impossible it can be.

My levels are good at the moment, but I’m only 6 months in to treatment. We held of TTC for the first few months but I asked to be put on pregnancy friendly medication about 3 months ago and have been half heartedly trying since then.

I use digital ovulation kits and whilst some months I seem to have lots of high/ peak days (5+) but others I get nothing...I don’t know if that’s because my cycle is irregular so I’m missing testing on those days, or if it’s because I’m just not getting fertile days every month...it’s so hard :( I’m also approaching my mid 30s so I don’t know if I’m getting my own head a little about running out of time!

Sorry for rambling, I guess I just needed to vent a little. I don’t have many people to talk about these things with, particularly with the specifics of my health issues so any advice or positivity would be welcomed.
