Thyroid problems are becoming common among women these days. This problem occurs due to hormonal imbalance in the body, which affects the entire body. Especially, when you are planning pregnancy, it becomes very important to understand and manage the condition of thyroid.
Connection between thyroid and pregnancy
If the level of thyroid hormone is not normal, it can affect your fertility. This means that if there is a deficiency or excess of thyroid hormone in your body, then you may face problems in conceiving. Apart from this, it is important to maintain the right level of thyroid during pregnancy as well, because it affects the health of both mother and child.
Till what age should you plan?
If you have thyroid problems, doctors believe that it is better to plan pregnancy till the age of 30-35 years. After this age, the risk of some complications in pregnancy increases, such as miscarriage, premature delivery, and problems in the development of the baby.
Risks of late pregnancy
If you are planning pregnancy after the age of 35 and you have thyroid problems, then you should take some precautions. At this age, the risk of high blood pressure, diabetes and other problems increases during pregnancy. These can cause problems for both the mother and the child. Also, there may be problems in the development of the child. Therefore, take medicines as advised by the doctor, get daily checkups done, and take special care of your diet and lifestyle, so that your pregnancy remains safe and healthy.
What to do?
- Get checked daily: If you have thyroid problems, keep getting regular checkups done and take medicines only as advised by the doctor.
- Take a balanced diet: Include green vegetables, fruits, and protein-rich foods in your diet. Eat iodine-rich food, but not too much.
- Reduce stress: Avoid stress and do yoga or meditation, so that your mental and physical health remains better.
- Despite thyroid problem, pregnancy can be planned at the right time and with the right preparation.
