I'm trying to get pregnant but I'm dealing with a prolactin level of 37 and an AMH level of 1.46. I've taken medication for the prolactin issue, and there were 4 pills involved. Do you think I can still get pregnant? I'm also on letrozole and duphaston at the moment. My doctor mentioned IUI as a possibility, but I'm feeling really confused about what to do next. Any advice?

You're on the right track with the treatment your doctor has prescribed. Fertility can be complex, but with the right medication and procedures, your chances of pregnancy can significantly improve. It's natural to feel a bit confused, but trust your doctors guidance and continue with the treatment plan.

I'm in my ninth month of pregnancy and my TSH level is 5.15. Should I be concerned about this? Is there anything I need to do or watch out for?

A TSH level of 5.15 during pregnancy is slightly higher than the recommended range, which is generally 0.2 to 3.0 mUL in the first trimester and up to 3.5 mUL in the second and third trimesters. Its important to discuss this with your doctor, as elevated TSH may indicate an underactive thyroid, which can affect both your health and your baby's development. They may recommend further tests and possible treatment.
