Why am I losing weight with subclinical hypothyroidism?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hi, I am 5 feet tall and weigh 74?kg. I also have thyroid issues. There is a lot of pressure on me to have a baby, and we are planning to conceive within a month. I am very concerned about my weight. What should I do? Is it possible to manage or reduce weight during pregnancy with just morning walks?
