Hi I came on here in January after having a miscarriage at 7 weeks. Won't need to tell everyone how devastating it was. We have been TTC for over 2 years now,

I started seeing a naturopath who assured me it was my thyroid and if I got it down below 2, I would fall pregnant and live happily ever after.

sounded great and easy. I bought the vitamins, did the detox, ate more expensive healthier food and got my thyroid tested again.

Nope it was actually higher, I think it was 4.5 or something. :hair:

She blamed it on stress and get this.... my weight.... now I am a size 10 and my BMI is 22. If anything I could lose 3 kilos at the most.

Yeah yeah I know- give her up. I came home and added up all the expenses since I started seeing her in January - $2000!!!!!

What I would like to hear to give me hope again is people who have fallen pregnant and had a healthy baby with high thyroid levels.

Thanks

Is that your TSH? I read that it should be less than 2.0 if you are planning pregnancy. See an endocrine specialist instead of a naturopath and get onto tablets and see what happens! :fingerscrossed:
