pregnant, unsure if hyperthyroid?plese help!

Tags: hyperthyroid, pregnant, ?

I am 18weeks pregnant and got the thyroid tests. I don`tknow if results of the tests are withing normal limits of PREGNANT women. THS was fine 1.494, T3 was 191 (fine?) but T4 was 13,1 (fine?-test said that I am off the range for normal woman. 4.5-12 is right. However it doesn`t describe range for pregnant woman. Should I be concern and push for endocrinologist? I don``t want to have a defective baby. Is it possible I have hyperthyroism? What is the risk? Before pregnancy I was fine, never treated. Thanks
