Hi all

Wonder if anyone got any ideas?

Had baby Dec 2011, diagnosed post pregnanc underactive thyroid Feb 2012.

Lost no weight giving birth and no weight even tho bf for 9m. Put on 2st at worse and medication inc to 100mg thyroxine.

Finally been referred to a specialist as hate being so big 13st when was 10st10 before all this.

Got my period this morning. Last and only one since having baby was 8wk ago in July. Med went up to 100 2weeks ago after more weight gain. Is this a good sign?

My tsh was 1.58 Pre inc to 100mg, hoping to go on t3 too if helps shift some weight?!

Anyone else got this after pregnancy and know the signs when it is getting better? Please help!!
