Any unexplained ladies here? Thyroid...

I was wondering if you have looked into thyroid issues? My TSH last cd 3 was 2.63 which is "normal" according to my RE but my acupuncturist said it is borderline because the range is 0.3-3.

I did some googling yesterday and saw a lot of girls said they couldn't get pg unless their tsh was under 2 so I am going to ask the RE about it tomorrow.

    I heard anything under 2.5 was good for potential pregnancy. I have Hashimotos. I can't imagine getting mine below 2. I've been on meds for years and I'm typically between 2.35-2.45

    Mine was over 4 and my RE put me on 50mcg of Synthroid. I'm now on 75mcg and it's down to 1.29. She likes to see it below 2.5

    Mine was 2.9. My RE put me on medication (even though I'm technically normal) to get it below 2.5. Just went for a one month blood test to see my level.

    I hope that I get below the level, since I really miss my driving-to-work smoothie in the am
