Thyroid and fertility

2017-04-21 16:52:05
Am 31yrs female. My menstrual cycle is abnormal. Am bleeding twice a month. Sometimes thrice a month. Doctor adviced to take certain tests. Found that my TSH level is 5.81. T3 and T4 are normal. HbA1C, glucose fasting, prolactin and glucose-post prandial(2hrs) is normal. Am planning to have a baby. Am worried whether this will affect my conception. Is this condition curable? If so, how long will it take to cure. Please advice.

Hello there. I can understand your concern. What you have is a hypothyroidism. It's a inability of your thyroid gland to produce enough thyoid hormone. So it will have to be supplemented. Yes you will be able to get pregnant. Consult a endocrinologist in person for further evaluation and management. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
