I'm pregnant and my tests have revealed that my thyroid is over active. How serious could this be if it gets worse? Should I be worried?

I didn't have any thyroid problems with my first pregnancy so I am worried.

It might bring your blood sugar down, so you might want to discuss this with your doctor. If you feel very faint and dizzy, then that means your metabolism is burning up the food faster and the baby may not get enough. I do not know what they do about that when you are pregnant. I have an interactive thyroid, so I take Levoxyl, which makes by thyroid burn faster, so there might be something for you too. Check with your doctor, and also read up on this, at the library or Internet to educate yourself. I have found out to do your own private detective work or homework pays off when discussing this with your doctor.

From a medical standpoint, you probably shouldn't wait too long. If you progress to true hypothyroidism that can actually be a serious fertility challenge. But the age-related problems are more likely to crop up in your thirties than in your teens and twenties, and you can often cure it simply by taking thyroid meds while trying to conceive. From a practical standpoint as a parent, I'd say wait at least a few years. Not because of your mental readiness, but because I know of almost no 18 year olds who are *financially* ready for a kid. Those 'lil suckers are expensive... our daughter runs around $600/month, and we're just giving her a pleasant middle-class lifestyle. Waiting until you are, say, 25, won't make a big issue in the grand scheme of things.

A few months ago, I was very sick, zero energy, freezing cold, depressed, weight gain, thought I was dying. I read every word of this Hypothyroidism Revolution program and followed all the advice. My life turned around the first week. I started to feel human again. Within weeks my energy came back and I felt like living again.

Talk to your ob/gyn about this. The other thing you can do is make an appointment with an Endocrinologist. These doctors specialize in thyroid disorders.
