Hello,Hypothyroidism (low TSH) can cause infertility and miscarriages. Before conceiving you should be in synthroid. The optimal dose is 75 mcg and it has to be monitored once in a month, whether it is adequate or not. if not again dose has to be adjusted, if TSH is normal, then repeat the test every 3 months.You have to take thyronorm on an empty stomach early in the morning before breakfast.Before conceiving your TSH level should be normal. otherwise, it will be dangerous to your growing baby.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards, Dr. Siddartha
