I'm trying to have a baby my last tsh level was 5.6. i take thyroxine everyday. i ovulate every month with a 27 day cycle. is it ok to keep trying ?

Too high: Your TSH level is too high by today's recommended standards for trying to get pregnant. You could likely continue trying as long as you are working with a qualified doctor to get the TSH lower. Best wishes.
