Diagnosed With Hypothyriodism-Some Symptoms not adding up
Okay so i am 20 years old my doc. diagnosed me with hypothriodism i have all the symptoms except for one, i am not over weight and i dont sruggle to lose weight. I used to weigh 115 lbs. at 5'6. I had a miscarriage about a year ago, ever since i cant keep weight. I wegh now 100 lbs. Soakin wet if i am lucky. I have gone several times to my doc. and i have several more times to see her. but what i dont understand is i am losing weight and she really doesn't care. she gave me a prescription for my headaches, and it helps most of the times but if she knows i have a thriod issue why isnt she prescribing something for that? also i am trying to get pregnant and i am on fertility drugs for that i just started those 2 days ago and i am worried that something could harm me or my baby. i know there are drugs available for hypothriodism during pregnancy but its basicly the same drugs for tyriod replacement, willi have to continue taking them after i have a child? i just feel like my doc. really doesn't care and i dont know what to do. Any Comments? All Will help Being no one else knows what i am going through except my husband.
