Ob-gyn: For best outcome for your pregnancy you should be established by now with an Ob-Gyn specialist. Goals are very specific in pregnant women with hyperthyroidism as to not to over or undertreat as it may influence fetal health. Your ob-gyn will likely connect with your endocrinologist as tight follow up will be needed.
