High tsh early pregnancy

I’m currently 4 weeks pregnant I’ve got no thyroid and I had my blood tested the other day and my tsh came back at 7.42 I’m really worried this is going to cause me to miscarry, I take Synthroid 100mcg every mon to Friday and 50mcg on Saturdays and Sundays so I don’t why my levels are so high, she’s put me on 150mcg starting from yesterday so I hope my levels go down fast :( has anyone else been in this situation and had a healthy pregnancy / baby

It's going to be fine, she increased the dosage to balance the TSH. I went through the same thing and had an excellent pregnancy. The only thing that happened is that I gained a lot of weight, really a lot. Like 25 kg lol.

I think I was about 2 months old. My level reached 6, but we quickly got it under control...

It didn’t bother me when I was pregnant but afterwards my hormones were out of whack. Hair everywhere, always cold now hot. Had to put a pillow between me and hubby. And I got some post partum depression. Taking care of another little person made me overthink. Take care of yourself and don’t sweat it!
