just diagnose with Thyroid T4 and have a questions regarding IVF

Hi, I was just told that I have thyroid t4.  I wasn't feeling well, I was feeling depressed and I felt heartbeat raising, I felt my kneck feeling really tense with pressure.  After finding out that I have thyroid I am really questioning the consern of my IVF doctor about his patients health.  I have been trying for 2 1/2 years.  When I first when in to see the IVF doctor, I had a two cysts on my ovaries, he said that it didn't matter if I had the cysts that I could go ahead and start on treatment, well after I did the fresh cycle, they removed 30 follicles and 12 survived thowing.  They did the first tranfers of two good embryos, they didnt attach.  So, I got ready for a first FET and they saw that I had two cysts measuring (9cmm each one) and I saw that the other doctors that were checking my lining saw the cysts and asked me if my doctor knew and I said yes, another one of the other doctors fell my glance and they asked me if I had a problem with my thyroid and I told them not that I was ever told, so fine, I never saw my doctor on the second FET until that one failed also..(they transfered 4 embies this time and nothing).. well after this one failed, he made a appointment for my husband and I to see him and thats when he actually said that he thought it would be better for me to have my cysts drain and my left tube removed because it was blocked and when he told me that I brought up that one of the doctors that had checked me also had asked about thyroid problems.. I never knew that thyroid can cause infetility because of the hormonal inbalance.....continue..

Thyroid balance is important for pts TTC.  Would see endocrinologist if there is an abnormal thyroid lab.
