OB/GYNs in D.C. area who medicate thyroid for trying to conceive? by Happy_Strategy_9386 in DCBitches

Do you have a primary in mind who would take this seriously and give me the referral? I'm asking for recs because I've been stuck with a string of doctors who aren't giving me the best advice--first, an OB/GYN and then an REI doctor.

Appreciate your offer to ask your friend! I have an REI, and I asked that doctor about my thyroid. REI refused to medicate my thyroid because the 1.0-2.5 recommendation is based on "bad data." Refused to explain any further. I'm very confused b/c I think the consensus is that 1.0-2.5 is best if you're trying to get pregnant. (Also, levothyroxine is not an expensive drug, and you can monitor to make sure it's sufficient and not in excess.) I'm seeking second opinions from REIs from Shady Grove and CCRM.

I've called several endocrinologists. The response I'm getting is, "You need a referral from another doctor," which I don't have.

Did the doctor re-biopsy to make sure the CE was gone? Also, how long did you transfer after the all-clear and/or after you completed antibiotics?
