After 12 weeks TSH it should be maintained between 0.35 to 3
Reducing to 100 is not advisable

Transient elevation of thyroid hormones can be seen due to vomiting in pregnancy. It’s nothing to worry. Continue the thyroid tablets as advised by your doctor. You can repeat thyroid profile after 2 months. It won’t harm your baby. Nothing to worry.
