Your chances are and  you should be treated the same as a hypothyroid person who want to or is PG.  Have your levels in the range suggested below or per doc., before getting PG.  Then
have your levels monitors throughout pregnancy, they will change.  I believe they want TSH between 1 and 2.  But you need to check with your endo.

If you follow procedure you should do just fine, hopefully.

Good Luck!

P.S. taking meds has no effects on the baby or getting PG
