Hypothyroid/hashimotos treated with Dessicated Thyroid extract.

Hi
Just wanting to hear of anyone's experiences of being pregnant whilst on medication (desiccated thyroid extract not thyroxine) for hypothyroidism. How was the pregnancy - Did you have energy (especially if this was second pregnancy and still had to look after toddler)? How was bubs when born? How were you after pregnancy? (Tired, run down, sick, etc).
Thank you so much.

Hello Anonymous - Kelly here from the Imperfect Mum team!

Have you spoken to a medical professional about this yet? I don't want to post your question if you haven't yet seen a professional as your needs and results will be different to other peoples and I don't want to put you or your little one at risk with other peoples experiences...

Hope to hear from you! x

Kelly here from the IM team - extra information for anyone reading this:

I have been in contact with the original poster and they are under direction by a doctor and they are not currently pregnant - but discussing for the future

They are interested to hear about other peoples experiences as this is rare....

Thanks all!
