Triglycerides commonly rise during pregnancy, so a single number on its own doesn't decide whether treatment is needed. What your specific reading means depends on your full pregnancy picture, which your obstetrician is best placed to judge.
Next Steps
Please share this report with your obstetrician or the doctor managing your thyroid so they can look at it together with your other readings.
Health Tips
Please don't start any medication for this on your own, since treatment decisions in pregnancy need to weigh safety for the baby too.
