Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for posting your query.
If your thyroid level & weight is under control,have sex in fertile period( 11, 13, 15,17 & 19 th day of your cycle) & at any time whatever is suitable to you.
You can have intercourse in morning & take rest for 10-15 minutes, after that you can even go for yoga.
Conception is a natural process & there is no need of extra precautions for that.
Continue your thyroid medication & start taking folic acid 5 mg once daily.
I hope your query has been answered. I will be available for your further queries.

Hi XXXXXXX
Welcome back.
You can use simple pain killer like paracetamol (maximum 3 times in a day) during this periconceptional period.This one is not having any side effect on developing fetus if you get conception in between.
I hope your query has been answered.
