TTC after 35

thyroid ladies...help :)

Just had my TSH done and it came back at 0.3.   I feel fine at that level....does it seem too low for conceiving?  I know it's supposed to be under 2 or something...

Re: thyroid ladies...help :)

  • That is quite low, but still in the "normal" range.  My endo likes to keep me around 1.0 for TTC. I have Hashimoto's Hypothyroidism and have never gotten as low as you are. 

    Do you have any symptoms of being Hyperthyroid (shaky hands, racing heart, rapid weight loss)?

    **** siggy warning - bfp & loss ****   ---- All Welcome ---

    Me: 44 - Hashimoto's (under control), DH: 38 - (minor issues)


    IUIs: 2 in 2012 ... Both BFN
    IVF #1: 10/16/13 ... BFP, however it was not viable and ended in an early loss at 7weeks.

    IVF #2: Feb '14 ... Cancelled. Positive beta at baseline appt, became very early loss.
    IVF #2: Apr '
    14 ... Retrieval Only. 2 embryos made it to day 3 freeze & will be batched with IVF #3 for PGD testing.
    IVF #3: June '14
    ...
    Retrieval Only. 4 embryos growing, all arrested before day 5. Two from April thawed, but also arrested.
    Currently benched while determining how to proceed.

  • Mine at last check was .90 which my endo and RE has said was "perfect"  for me... I have Hashi's like @privateone.  This is the BEST I have felt.  They did not want me much lower though.  I was warned about heart flutters, shakyness etc...   That being said it may not be an issue for you.  You really need to talk to your Dr to see what is good for you.  Too low can cause problems but I am not familiar with hyperthyroidism.  Talk to your doctor and good luck!

  • Thanks, ladies.  No, no hyperthyroid-like symptoms.  I'm actually tired!!!  :)   But when I creep up over 1, I can feel it.

  • 0.3 is within range and I usually feel great when I'm around that level.  My endo would be pleased with that for me because she likes to keep me close to suppressed (to keep the cancer growth away!)
