Why am I losing weight with subclinical hypothyroidism?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Is it safe or possible to lose weight during pregnancy if someone is overweight and has thyroid issues? I am concerned because being overweight may lead to excessive weight gain during pregnancy, which could affect health. Could you please guide me on how to manage weight safely in this situation?
