Will antibodies for hyperthyroidism recur after self-healing?

Patient's question:

Can the disease still occur after the cure of hyperthyroid antibody? How have you been preparing for pregnancy recently? How long will it take to get pregnant? Will the disease recur after the cure of hyperthyroid antibody?

Doctor's answer:

Hyperthyroidism is an autoimmune disease that requires long-term medication. Even after being cured, there is still a possibility of recurrence. Once the thyroid function is controlled, pregnancy is possible. After becoming pregnant, thyroid function should be rechecked periodically. If the thyroid function remains abnormal, regular oral antithyroid medication, such as propylthiouracil, can be taken. At the same time, it is important to follow a high-protein, high-vitamin diet, avoid spicy foods, reduce the intake of iodized salt and seafood, and not overexert or stay up late excessively.
