Just wondering if anyone out there had trouble concieving with an under active thyroid? I just recently got tested and I am now on meds. The docter did a blood test to check if I ovulated and I did. The waiting is hard.
Good luck with yours. I hope it comes right.Hi love,
I've very recently been diagnosed with an overactive thyroid - treatment for it is a little more complicated so I have to wait to see a specialist, but the effects they have on fertility are the same.
If you are ovulating you are as fertile as somebody without an underactive thyroid (I'm not actually ovulating but hopefully will when I get treated)
The problem is not getting pregnant but that it can cause miscarriages. The doctors will probably want your TSH level to be normal before you get pregnant to reduce this risk and your meds will do that for you.
Don't worry, you're not infertile, especially since you ovulating. Have you told the doctor you are trying to get pregnant though so he can monitor your TSH when you get pregnant?
