Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Dubagest doesn't have any major effect on thyroid function & you can take it safely.
More important thing, you need higher dose of thyroxine to keep TSH under control as demand for it increases during pregnancy & high TSH has adverse effect on baby. Kindly consult your doctor for the same.
