Is anyone else dealing with a thyroid problem? I just recently found out I was pregnant and just worried because my thyroid levels aren't where they should be they are at 7.2 right now.

    I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism with my last pregnancy. I'm pregnant with my third and it apparently went away.

    I have hypothyroidism and when I found out I was pregnant they tested my levels which were 16.2. After a higher dosage meds and a month later they are all in normal range. Take your meds everyday same time and they should go back down with time and monitoring.

    When I had my reoccurring pregnancy loss testing done it was discovered that I had elevated thyroid levels. They weren't too terribly high but my docotor did end up putting me on medication. It has seemed to help a lot I think.

    Okay. Thank you so much. It gives me hope. I've been taking my meds they just seem to not be able to get my levels right - I'm hoping with me being pregnant they will figure something out. Since my level is at 7 Im trying to be positive!

    @jdrdnr .75 MG is what I'm on and it's been since summer. When I first went from .50 to .75 it actually went too low so my doctor had me take the .75mg for 6 days. Well now it's up again so she has me taking it 7 days a week and she said being pregnant it should equal it all out. I go next month to check it out again. I'm trying not to worry about it or read much on it.
