Effects of hyperthyroidism on pregnancy in women

The full name of hyperthyroidism is hyperthyroidism. Patients with hyperthyroidism have many serious symptoms, such as palpitations, weight loss, increased eating and bowel movements, sweating, etc. Hyperthyroidism mainly occurs in women of childbearing age. Therefore, female patients with hyperthyroidism and pregnancy are often seen in clinical medicine. So, how much does female hyperthyroidism affect pregnancy?

In fact, diseases such as hyperthyroidism can indeed cause great harm to the fetus in the uterus of sick pregnant women. If pregnant women suffer from hyperthyroidism, it may affect the IQ and height growth of the fetus. The extent of the impact of hyperthyroidism on female pregnancy depends on the severity of the hyperthyroidism. Generally speaking, the more severe the hyperthyroidism is, the greater the impact on women's pregnancy. If the condition of hyperthyroidism is relatively mild, the impact on women's pregnancy will be relatively small. If women with hyperthyroidism actively and promptly go to a reliable and standardized hospital for professional, strict and reasonable treatment during pregnancy, then hyperthyroidism can basically be controlled and will not cause significant adverse effects on the fetus in the uterus of pregnant women.

It is generally recommended that women go to a local reliable hospital for a thyroid check-up three months before pregnancy. If they are found to have abnormal thyroid levels such as hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, they need to control the disease under the guidance of a doctor before they can prepare to have a baby. If female friends only find out that they have hyperthyroidism after they become pregnant, they should go to the hospital as soon as possible to receive appropriate and reasonable treatment after knowing their condition. If the condition is serious and has had a serious impact on the development of the fetus, the pregnant woman needs to decide whether to keep the fetus based on her own condition.
