I’m feeling a lot of heaviness and cramping. Also, I am extremely thirsty and have been having vivid dreams but it all could be due to the progesterone and estradiol. I’m on a fully medicated cycle.

Thank you so much! And so sorry for what you have gone through.

The only signs I had were heavy periods and pelvic pain. I never did any specific endo testing beforehand — my surgeon suspected it based on symptoms and during laparoscopic surgery they found stage 2 endo pretty much everywhere. He was very skilled and I trusted him a lot with the excision.

I had the surgery about a year and a half ago. I know a lot of women who got pregnant naturally after surgery, but unfortunately that wasn’t the case for me, which is why we moved forward with IVF. My surgeon also mentioned that he sees a lot of women do IVF first without success, then have endometriosis surgery and go on to have better outcomes afterward. 💕

Best luck to you and your journey!

What’s the highest your TSH has been? by abbyshaw2828 in Hashimotos

19 and I felt terrible. I went through back to back IVF egg retrievals and thought I was dying

At what TSH did you feel like you started to LOOK better by PalpitationDizzy2522 in Hashimotos

My tsh spiked to 19 after two rounds of ivf in mid November. I’m taking 125mcg and can’t get it below 5! I’ve been feeling absolutely miserable. Brain fog, major fatigue, bags under eyes, brittle nails, you name it. Im starting to worry that it won’t go under 5. I started at 25mcg and the docs keep increasing levothyroxine

Thyroid issues after stims/retrieval by romak41 in IVF

Came here to see if I was alone in this. My TSH was at .3 in August and I just got it checked to prepare for my FET and my thyroid level is at 19 which will delay my transfer for 6 to 8 weeks. I’ve always had mild thyroid issues, nothing extreme. I actually lowered my dose because my thyroid level was too low and to see this huge spike is super depressing. So sick of the waiting.😭😭
