Hypothyroidism
October 12, 2007
I am 19 years old and i have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism for about 5 years. I can never remember to take my medicine and i was just curious if it could affect the baby if i was to get pregnant?

Yes, docs would like you to be well controlled for your hypothyroid prior to you getting pregnant not only for your fetus, but for your overall health during pregnancy so that there is a smaller risk of pregnancy complications.
Associate with taking your medicines say with brushing your teeth, (think of these two going together) and that'll help a lot. Good luck with compliance, hope others can give you tips, and keep us posted...
