hi healthcare magic user, you can conceive provided that your TSH is normal. If I would have been your doctor I would have advised you plan for second baby because your child should have siblings. please get a TSH level done. so that I can guide you further how to plan for pregnancy.
If TSH is normal then neurological , brain development of baby will be fine if properly managed in pregnancy.
