A member asked:
If you used radioactive in your thyroid its is possible you getting pregnant and having a baby ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Certainly: Radiation is used to block overactive thyroid production and is concentrated on the thyroid itself and no other organs. Pregnancy is possible but at your stated age of 40 not as likely without MD assistance.
