Thyroid and fertility, and what leads it to a high-risk pregnancy

The Thyroid is a butterfly-shaped organ that regulates your body’s metabolism and affects its vital functions. Fertility is the term for a couple’s ability to conceive a baby and bring it to the total duration of pregnancy and childbirth. Let’s understand their relation.


Disrupted Ovulation

The Thyroid maintains the function and balance of hormones in the body. When the hormones are imbalanced, Ovulation gets delayed and disrupted. Without Ovulation and the Egg, pregnancy is not possible. Therefore, it’s crucial to get in touch with an expert when planning a baby.


Difficult pregnancy

The Thyroid makes the implantation of an Embryo a tough job for your body, which leads to either no baby or an increased risk of miscarriages during pregnancy. When Progesterone levels are unbalanced, they can adversely affect the baby and the mother’s health.


Thyroid and testosterone

The Thyroid is not biased. Male thyroid imbalance can also lead to infertility and conception problems. The hormonal imbalance leads to reduced sperm count, Premature Ejaculation and Erectile Dysfunction, all of which leads to infertility. Besides count, sperm quality also gets compromised.


High-risk pregnancy

Pregnancy with Thyroid disorders is considered a high-risk pregnancy. Staying in touch with an expert and keeping it balanced is essential for the health of both the mother and baby. Eating healthy, taking the advised precautions and helping maintain a balance is the best gift you can give to yourself and your baby.
