New Here with Thyroid issue

I have a thyroid issue and have been doing some research.  Apparently, prenatal vitamins can counteract the effectiveness of my thyroid meds.  Has anyone else been experiencing the same thing?

    I have hypothyroidism and take meds along with vitamins.  I was told to take the vitamins at least an hour before or after my thyroid meds.  The iron in the vitamins prevent the thyroid meds from fully absorbing into your system.  I usually take my meds at 5:00pm (I work 3rd), and then the rest around 6:00.  I hope this helps!
    In memory of the angel babies that were too perfect for Earth.

    Yeah, you need to talk to your DR. depending on the issue they will have specific advice for you, but it's no big deal.
