Hi,
No, Thyronorm is safe in pregnancy, and can be taken with out any worries.
it would be advisable for you to take Thyronorm and get your TSH levels checked. Ideally you should aim to get your TSH levels under 3 mIU/L in pregnancy .
As levels more than 3, are associated with a slightly higher chance of miscarriage, preterm labour and pre eclampsia and slower developmental milestones in the babies born.
Hope this helps.
