Hi welcome to health care magic
According to history you are taking levothyroxine tablet for hypothyroidism....
You can consult endocrinologist in your city for your further course of action
As you are pregnant your serum TSH value should be kept between two to three....
If your TSH level will be maintained than your pregnancy will go well
Don't stop drug and never change dose without doctor advise
According to TSH value dose Is adjusted
Take care
Hope this will help
