Possibly.: OCD and anxiety occur frequently and any stresses such as your recent miscarriage, change in thyroid medications can cause a lot of stress in your body that you may need to see your psychiatrist to see if adjustment in your treatment is in order. Remember, when you have OCD, any change is very stressful.
