I hope the doctor can give a detailed answer.Doctor's answer:
Hello, regarding the question of whether a person with hyperthyroidism can have children, it is possible to have children with hyperthyroidism, provided that medication is used to control the thyroid function well. Then, you should stop taking the medication for at least six months before trying to conceive, otherwise, children born with hypothyroidism may have intellectual disabilities. Go to a regular hospital's endocrinology department to systematically check the eight thyroid function tests. Take the prescribed medication on time, have regular follow-up examinations, and wait until the thyroid function is normal before deciding to have a child. This is the answer to the question of whether a person with hyperthyroidism can have children. Wishing you good health.
