Hi, I think you should first bring your thyroid profile in normal range and then try for pregnancy. Increased values can lead to abortions and fetal complications also. When your thyroid profile is normal, you can try naturally for 3 to 6 months. Be in contact with your husband every 2 to 3 days after your periods stop. It will increase chances of your pregnancy. If it doesn't work, then you can take some medicines like clomiphene for the growth of your follicles and track your follicles growth by repeated ultrasound and when your follicles is more than 17 to 18 mm, take injection for rupturing the follicles. Be in contact with your husband for 2 to 3 days after injection. Take progesterone for next 2 weeks. Do a urine pregnancy test at home after that. You can try like that for 3 cycles. Hope I have answered your question.
