We need additional information on whether dose adjustment was done in the early weeks of pregnancy. TSH has to be controlled below 2.5 during pregnancy. You can consult nearest Endocrinologist with DM/DNB Endo qualification for increasing the dose of thyroxine as per your body weight and compliance.
