After getting your Thyroid Hormones checked you can start regulating by natural remedies or Rx synthetic meds or maybe both. If the Thyroid hormones are way low, you will have noticeable mental depression, sleep problems, loss of hair, coldness, loss of energy, and many more bad symptoms.

Natural remedies I use for Hypothyroid is Magnet Therapy; I use a much stronger but if you have a refrigerator magnet or even two placed on each other, put the side that sticks to metal over your Thyroid (lower front of neck) for up to an 1hr couple times a day for a wk or so, this will detox the Thyroid and reduce inflammation.

Also for T health, need adequate or more Selenium. Your multi will have some but likely not enough so take a supplement or eat Brazil Nuts. For superior antioxidant protection, take these additional nutrients that are synergistic with Selenium: Broad Spectrum Vit-E, Ubiquinol or CoQ10, and Melatonin.

Zinc is also important for T so try one Zinc Lozenge a day, some contain Vit-C some do not and some contain supportive herbs. The Now brand has many of these and with lots of Zinc to boot. The ZL will directly benefit the T.

The amino acid Tyrosine is necessary to combine with Iodine to make T hormones so take 1 grm per day.

Reduce or totally eliminate tap water for consumption or bathing by installing carbon filtration devices on kitchen faucet and bathroom shower head.

May need to do more adequate heavy metal detox methods which are specified here on E.C., especially Fluoride which is highly toxic to the entire body and specifically the Thyroid Gland. At least find a high quality healthfood store brand multivitamin that contains Green Superfoods like Blue-Green Algae, Spirullina, and Chlorella. A supplement of a combination of Sea Weeds and Kelp both detoxifies heavy metals and supplies natural Iodine. Activated Charcoal or Bentonite Clay taken orally will remove toxins via the gut and safely eliminate them, which is indicated for you as you reported discomfort in that area.

Let us know of any progress or update so maybe soon you can get well enough to have a healthy baby.
