Hello :) I know my replay its bit late,but i just found ur post.I was wondering did they increased ur thyroid supplement dose?Im 22 weeks pregnant and i was alternating the dose,one day i was taking 12.5 and the next 25 mg of Synthroid.After 4 weeks my tsh went from 3.29 to 4.3 and im taking the whole 25 mg pill.Could u let me know if there is any danger for the baby when the tsh is elevated like this?I;ve never had thyroid problems before get pregnant.Im 23 yrs old and this is my first pregnancy.
I read that ur TSH was 4.5 during ur first pregnancy and u were taking 25 mg of Synthroid as well.How did ur pregnancy progressed? Im very worried about losing my baby =/ ur replay would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
