TSH dosage during pregnancy
Hi doctor,
I'm currently 21 weeks pregnant. Before conception ( in Feb ) my TSH level was 5.2 and doctor suggested me 50mcg of Thyronorm. Now the TSH level is reduced to 2.0 and the doctor has asked me to reduce the dosage to 25 mcg.
My question is, can I take half a tablet ( 50mcg ) everyday or 50mcg every alternate day? Or should I buy the 25 mcg dosage? Does the exact dosage matter? Please suggest.
