Effects Of Thyroid During Pregnancy
Pregnancy is a period of time when your health complications get compounded. You have to battle swollen feet, nausea and giddiness. These problems are limited to you. However, when your health problems impact your unborn baby, it is a serious situation. Thyroid during pregnancy is one such problem that has its impact on the baby. High or low thyroid during pregnancy can affect the baby in a very negative way.
If you already have thyroid problems, then they might be increased in intensity during your pregnancy. Some women also experience pregnancy related thyroid problems. Thyroid is basically an endocrine gland and thus any hormonal imbalance affects it. Both the deficiency and excess of thyroid hormone can harm the baby. If you have thyroid problems during pregnancy, then your baby can be harmed in the following ways.
Risk
Of
Miscarriage
If
you
have
high
amounts
of
thyroid
hormone
in
your
blood
during
the
first
trimester
of
pregnancy,
your
chances
of
miscarriage
are
increased.
This
can
be
controlled
with
the
right
medications.
Neurological
Development
A
lack
of
sufficient
thyroid
hormone
can
sometimes
cause
problems
with
the
baby's
mental
development.
If
the
thyroid
problem
is
not
contained
during
pregnancy,
you
might
give
birth
to
a
baby
with
mental
disabilities
or
lower
IQ
levels.
Pre-Term
Births
Sometimes,
herper
activity
of
the
thyroid
gland
during
pregnancy
can
lead
to
preeclampsia
which
means
high
blood
pressure
during
pregnancy.
This
can
impact
the
foetus
in
a
negative
way
causing
placenta
related
problems.
It
could
also
force
a
pre-term
birth
in
extreme
cases.
Damage
To
Baby's
Thyroid
Gland
The
treatment
of
thyroid
during
pregnancy
can
also
cause
certain
problems.
Certain
types
of
medications
for
thyroid
contain
radioactive
iodine.
These
medications
can
damage
your
baby's
thyroid
gland
if
you
take
them
during
pregnancy.
Whenever
your
doctor
prescribes
you
medications
for
thyroid,
specify
that
you
are
carrying
a
child.
Thyroid during pregnancy can affect the child in your womb. However, it is not a problem that cannot be tackled. It is important to get the right kind of medication for your problem.
