THS levels during pregnancy
I'm currently 20 weeks pregnant.
In my 5th week of pregnancy, my TSH level was found to be 3.98. Since then, I've been taking 25 mcg Thyronorm. Later I tested in 12th week, it came down to 2.93. Again in 18th week it was recorded 3.03. My question is, and I'm really concerned about it, could those levels impact mental health of my baby?
I see as per American Thyroid Association I'm really above the threshold but is that concerning with Indian mothers?
