Thyroid level increased

2016-05-03 03:16:37
I have completed my 5 months of pregnancy. Everything seems normal. During my 2nd month I was tested for Thyroid, the level was 3.56. So the doctor suggested me Thyronorm 12.5 mcg tabs for a month. Followup test showed Thyroid in acceptable range. So I left eating medicines. Now I recently got tested again and the level has increased to 5.51. Doctor suggested me same tabs with 50 mcg. I am really worried on - how serious this is? What measures should I be taking apart from medicines? Any exercises or food habits need to be changed etc. Request you to please help me on this as I am really worried.

Please continue thyronorm as prescribed. And don't take decision on your own as far as medications are concerned
