Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I suggest you to stabilize the thyroid as soon as possible. Your cycle will get regular and you will probably get pregnant soon. The treatment consists of Levothyroxine and it is safe to be taken in pregnancy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
