Is pregnancy is safe in hypothyroidism women? what r t complications in child?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Treat before pregnan: Hypothyroidism should be corrected by an appropriate dose of brand name T4 before you get pregnant. If you're already pregnant, make sure your abnormal thyroid is treated properly immediately, as low thyroid level can endanger the pregnancy.
