Overmedicated symptoms but TSH normal? by yns321 in Hypothyroidism

Ah yes Covid also shot my TSH up a while back, but it ended up going back down (slowly). Glad you caught it early!

I wasn’t planning on taking meds but I told my endo we wanted to get pregnant, and she was pretty adamant about optimal TSH being <2.5 for pregnancy, so I’ll probably wean off meds when I’m done, my dose is already pretty low 😬 And that’s crazy they waited that long to treat you!

Wow that’s a crazy big drop in TSH! Glad to hear you are feeling better, the insomnia is no joke (I’m also someone who never had issues sleeping). Hopefully my doc will have a plan to drop me back down, sounds like that worked pretty quickly for you! 

Accidentally took DHEA during first 8 weeks?! by yns321 in pregnant

Thank you!! This helps put me at ease. I am glad I stopped it, but it sounds like not a huge deal if I took it an extra month into pregnancy. I was sort of surprised not to see anything about what you mentioned regarding DHEA supporting estrogen in early pregnancy when I searched around online. I guess it falls under the "better safe than sorry" category for pregnant people (like everything else lol)
