    **lurking from IF**

    I'm excited to read the feedback from other ladies on this. My thyroid antibodies were 595 in February and my RE completely blew it off as no big deal. When I went to my GP last week they were 4577! She put me on synthroid immediately. From my research it seems that high antibodies can contribute to implantation failure. My RE does not believe this. I'd love to hear what yours has to say about it.

    I've started going gluten free/dairy free 80% of the time and am trying to have an antiinflammatory diet. From what I've read this is supposed to help.

    Thanks @GrailSeeker14‌!
    We are seeing a reproductive immunologist in June and probably finding a new RE. I'm trying to gather as much info as I can in the meantime

    I've been on Levothyroxine 225mcg since 2007 when my TSH skyrocketed to 28.6 and my antibodies went up to 6800.  My cycles were crazy irregular.

     I try to eat as clean as possible, get exercise and I am 90% gluten/dairy free.  Since doing all that my cycles now average 32-37 days and I've managed to peel off 30 of the 75 lbs I gained during that ordeal.  I still have a ways to go.  

    My RE is aware of my thyroid history and closely monitors it.  I have several doses of medication in the cabinet and we do a lot of adjusting to keep in the 1-2 TSH range.  

    EDITED to add:  SOY and Hashi's are not friends, I was told to avoid anything soy as it can interfere with absorption of your thyroid medication.

    I have a regular endocronologist manage my hashi's/thyroid and she is awesome.  she works closely with my RE and she monitors me every 6-8 weeks.  I am on 100mcgs of Synthroid ( my endo won't prescribe the generic). Once I am pregnant she will monitor me every 4 weeks.  She frequesnlty tests me for other things depending on my symptoms.  For instance I have leg cramps so she tested my Vit D levels which were crazy low and put me on a heavy dose of Vit D.  No more leg cramps!

    As for Diet... I try to also keep a high protein, low carb diet.  I stay away from Soy and goicentric foods ( raw brocooli etc...). 

    Also I make sure I take my thyroid med 1 hour before eating or drinking anything but water or atleast 4 hours after consuming anything.  I I don't take my vitamins anywhere close to taking my thyroid med.
