Thyroid Disorders in Pregnancy: What every Parent should know.
Your thyroid may be small, but during pregnancy it plays a big role—for both you and your baby. In this episode of MamaDoc BabyDoc, we break down thyroid disorders in pregnancy in a clear, reassuring way. We’ll talk about what the thyroid does, how pregnancy changes thyroid hormone needs, and what happens when levels are too high or too low. We cover common conditions like hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and postpartum thyroiditis, along with symptoms to watch for, how thyroid disorders are diagnosed, and why proper treatment matters for fetal development and maternal health. Most importantly, we’ll share what expecting parents can do to advocate for themselves and feel confident navigating testing, medications, and follow-up care. Whether you’ve been diagnosed with a thyroid condition or just want to better understand how pregnancy affects your body, this episode will help you feel informed, empowered, and supported—every step of the way.
