Prior to conceiving what specific tests need to be done for hypothyroidism/ hashimoto and what are desired levels? no links or talk to doctor pls
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Free T4, TSH: I would order the above tests to make sure that your thyroid status is normal before and perhaps even during your pregnancy. I 'd doubt that you can order these tests yourself.
