How much thyroxine are you taking . Is it 75 or 50. Secondly were you taking this medicine prior to pregnancy or started now. In fact 5.8 is not a level to start with but it will be advised to follow your physician advise instead of online medical advice

It’s a nutritional supplement, considered safe to use in pregnancy but it’s always better to consult your treating gynaecologist before using it.. need of it for you or adjusting the other supplements better to decide by your gynaecologist. Always seek your gynaecologist advice before using any medication.
