How To Conceive While Having Thyroid Problem?

im 45, TTC, had blood work done and the T3/T4 test came back saying I m Hypothyroid. Endocrinologist prescribed levothyroxine. I took one each day for three days then on day 4 cut it in half, day 5 i stopped taking it. I dont want to become dependent on these. I immediately started the 3 day cleanse (dr. Oz), cut gluten out of diet, and no sugar, and am looking up everything else to see its affect on thyroid. The thing is, i know now i caused the Hypo condition over the last 3 months. Because of reading online about miracle conception pills , i started taking Evening Primrose, Royal Jelly, Maca, milk thistle, Dhea, Soy Isoflavones(cd3-7), and progesterone cream (cd14-34). I took these for 3 months before deciding to have blood work done. Before the above routine I had lost 45lbs over 10 month span by doing the Starch Diet. Not realizing that had already put my system into struggling mode. Then after starting the pills i became so hungry all the time, so started buying and hiding a stash of chocolate chips and snacks so my husband couldn t see. All this time i still was working out 4-5 days out of the week for 35-45 min. So my question is this, I only took the Levothyroxine for 3 and half days, how long before its out of my system. Also how long before the Miracle pills ( RJ, EPO,DHEA, and maca are out of my system)?

Hello,

Thyroid patient can conceive normally provided the proper drug intake, thyroid hormone level monitoring is being carried out through out the pregnancy period. So far as the clearance of mentioned drugs from the body is concerned, the duration varies as per the individual response of body but on an average it is around 5-7 working days.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
