What is Thyroid Function Changes in Pregnancy about?
The document discusses increased levels of the thyroid hormone T4 during a normal pregnancy due to changes in thyroid physiology. These changes include an increase in T4-binding globulin which results in higher total T4 and T3 concentrations compared to non-pregnant women. The document also provides guidance on dosing for hypothyroidism treatment during pregnancy based on TSH levels and whether the patient has preexisting hypothyroidism.
