I'm 24 weeks pregnant and suffering from hypothyroid. Although my thyroid levels are under control now. It's 2.5. Currently having thyrox 75 mg dosage daily. My weight is 81 kg. I'm worried about my increased and ever increasing weight. I used to be a always fit and fine slim and a go getter and do it all myself. But now my heavy body does not let me even walk a little or do little chores like climb to the other end of the bed. I'm depressed. I need some guidance on how to tackle this and reduce weight or how to wait till the right time comes to reduce weight.

hey Kanika, don't take stress as that too leads to increase in thyroid n weight gain, enjoy ur pregnancy with Lil control on diet n keep walking, this will also help u during delivery and deal with ur weight post delivery.

hey try pranayam...the ones that are allowed during pregnancy. I got my thyroid under control during pregnancy by yoga and diet control.
