Hoping someone can shed some light.
I was diagnosed with hyperthyroid secondary to Graves’ disease at around 25 weeks pregnant. Have had my doses of carbimazole increased and increased and it’s just not bringing my thyroid levels down enough. Baby is also now high risk due to my hyperthyroid, growth scans are showing she is small too and has dilated bowel loops 15.8mm. I’m now 35 weeks pregnant and are booked in for a c section at 39 weeks.
they’ve switched my medication to PTU 300mg daily now as the carbimazole isn’t working. Just wondered whether anyone else took PTU during their 3rd trimester or whether they had hyperthyroid that was just totally out of control in the 3rd trimester? Feel so stressed and constantly on edge at the minute. :(
