I'm 31 and planning to conceive this year, but I've been told my TSH levels are too high for that, and I might need hormone pills. My Vitamin D is also low at 4.82 ngml. I've heard low Vitamin D can lead to high TSH. Should I start with Vitamin D supplements first? Would that help with the TSH levels, or should I focus on the TSH issue directly? What's your advice on navigating these levels when planning for pregnancy?
You can take injection. Uprise D3 6L once a week for 6 weeks. After that tab. D3 must 60k to be chewed once a week for 12 weeks.

My mom has been struggling with thyroid issues and her doctors are recommending surgery. I'm really worried is surgery absolutely necessary in her case? How long might the recovery take if she goes through with it? Also, could you share some dos and don'ts she should follow right now to manage her condition better?
Thyroid surgery is needed for large goiters or cancer; recovery takes 2–3 weeks—follow meds, rest, and avoid strain.
