Complex question : in theory that may happen, however in real life maintaining a good thyroid function in pregnant ladies with hypothyroidism from any cause is important for the mother and the unborn baby. So keeping the follow-up with your doctor, maintaining a good thyroid function, and taking the thyroid replacement medicine, all are important, wish you a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby
