Hello, I had hypothyroidism during my pregnancy with TSH 11.5, and my gynecologist suggested taking 100 mcg of Thyronorm (while I had been taking 75 mcg before). Now, post delivery, my TSH value is 0.014, which seems like hyperthyroidism. Can you please tell me if this is dangerous and what the cause might be? My calcium levels are borderline low, and my vitamin D levels have also decreased. Will this affect my baby (2.5 months old) as I am breastfeeding? My gynecologist, after looking at my report, changed the Thyronorm dosage from 100 mcg back to 75 mcg. How frequently should I do a thyroid test, and is there anything I need to worry about? Can my pituitary gland become normal post pregnancy?

Likely postpartum thyroiditis or overmedication. Needs thyroid monitoring every 6 to 8 weeks. Baby is safe. Recheck levels and consult endocrinologist.
Dr. Bhanu Suggests...
Take a TSH Test (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Test or Take a Calcium Test Test

View allI took medicine a few minutes after intercourse, and then my first period started, but it lasted only 1.5 days. After that, I started having daily stomach pain, so I consulted a gynecologist, who advised an ultrasound. The report impression was excess bowel gas. Later, my second period started but was not clear. Today, I feel like my menses should come, but it has not. My gynecologist advised me to take Amycordial syrup and a TSH test. I had also done a pregnancy test before my first period, which was negative. Could you please advise what is happening? Is it possible that I am pregnant?

Hi. I have taken medications one by one. First, I had severe skin problems with pimples. I took three months of treatment, and now the pimples are cleared using medicines and creams. Second, I gained weight suddenly, and my periods became irregular. My blood test showed increased thyroid levels, so I took medicines for that. Next, I am not sure what effects these medicines may have had on me. Now I am thinking about how my skin will look as I get older after stopping these medicines. I need a suggestion to maintain my health in a good way without using any medication?
