Patient's question:
Female, twenty-five years old this year, I have been married for three years, and I have never used contraception during this time. I want to have a child, but I have also had hypothyroidism for a long time and am quite worried. I want to ask first, can I still get pregnant with hypothyroidism?Doctor's answer:
Generally, it is possible to get pregnant after developing hypothyroidism, but it is essential to control the condition well before considering pregnancy. After becoming pregnant, medication should be taken under the guidance of a doctor and not used blindly. Attention should also be paid to diet. There are many treatment methods for this disease, but since the patient's condition varies, the treatment approach will differ. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to seek professional medical evaluation as soon as possible to receive appropriate treatment.
