Endocrinologist,  's  Response
Hello and thank you for asking!
Most people with hypothyroidism symptoms and confirmed thyroxine deficiency are treated with a synthetic long-acting form of thyroxine, known as levothyroxine (L-thyroxine), However in women trying to conceive, a careul monitoring is recommended and a strict treatment should be followed.
Subfertility or difficulty conceiving is one of many possible consequences of thyroid problems (both overactive and underactive). However once the TSH is in the range of normal, it is most unlikely that reproductive derangement's occur.
If you certainly have an underactive thyroid from one of the most common causes ie Hashimoto's thyroiditis which is an auto-immune condition, then there is a likelihood of other auto-immune disorders to be concomitantly present. Some examples are premature ovarian failure, adrenal insufficiency and type 1 diabetes. All this requires a careful assessment by an endocrinologist.

Hope this answers your query. In case of any doubts, I am available for the follow ups.

Kind regards,
Dr.Mirjeta
