Article Synopsis
- Women with hypothyroidism often need higher levothyroxine doses during pregnancy to maintain healthy thyroid levels.
- A study analyzed TSH testing frequency and dosage adjustments throughout pregnancy, using data from Alberta, Canada, between 2014 and 2017.
- Results indicated that while most women had TSH tests, overtreatment (TSH <0.10 mIU/L) was linked to higher preterm delivery risks, but undertreatment (TSH ≥10.00 mIU/L) did not show significant adverse effects.
