I have hypothyroidism too and I am on 1 mg of Levothyroxin.I was initially on 0.75mg but my RE increased my dose.I had collected some information about natural killer cells,T-cells ,thyroid antibodies and their relation with miscarriages.He said,as many other REs that "all this is garbage" and too hyped.He said he has done b/w for my thyroid and increased my dose accordingly but apart from that I dont need to worry.I am now confused.When my RE says I dont need to worry about my thyroid problem and there are so many information about the possible harm to pregnancy/fertility by thyroid malfunction,whom do I believe.Its really worrying me.My ER is over and soon if everything goes fine I might go for ET and if my thyroid causes any problems after that I would never be able to forgive myself for not really going deeper into the problem and just saying "OK" to my RE everytime he waived away my thyroid issues.Ladies do let me know what you think I should do..
