Of course you should continue your pregnancy. Just consult a physician and take regular medicines for control of your TSH level. Usually controlled thyroid level is not harmful. Take advice of your gynaecologist too. Don't worry. . Just youhave to continue your medicine along with other medicines Thank you. Dr Chetan Maandharkar. Queen women's Hospital, Ahmedabad
