004: Getting Pregnant with Hashimoto's - a podcast by Marni Wasserman
from 2020-07-08T12:46:01
So the question is, can you get pregnant with Hashimoto's?
The answer is yes! This was something I definitely questioned when I was first starting to think about trying to conceive and wondered if I would have any challenges - as fertility can be something that is affected by autoimmune conditions and specifically, Hashimoto's thyroiditis.
But I didn’t let the “what-ifs” get in my way. I just focused on all the things I could do to support my health and my thyroid gland. You will find out what I did and what you can do to give your body the best chances of conceiving with an autoimmune disease.
