Hello,
I can understand your concern.
If it is Hashimoto thyroiditis all you need to do is to take medicines regularly (every morning 30 min to 1 hour before having breakfast) and check the TSH level after 4 weeks.
You need to take iodine supplements as every pregnant woman does (200 mcg daily) during the whole pregnancy and lactation.
