Hello there , hypothyroidism in pregnancy is common . You should continue taking eltroxin as adviced by your treating doctor. As it’s important for you as well as mental development of growing baby inside you . S.TSH should be below 2.5 in pregnancy.
Recheck level after 11/2 month and see if you need to change the dosage of medicine .
Health Tips
No need to worry about it as long as you continue taking eltroxin as per prescription.
