[quote=Anonymous]I had my thyroid unofficially diagnosed by my OB during initial OB infertility workup (turns out I have hashi's). She referred me to Dr. Nair at SGF and I also see Dr. Goyal at MedStar Georgetown (regular RE, I like her if you're looking for one). Both feel very strongly about keeping TSH below 2.5. Dr. Nair at SGF was the one who first put me on levothyroxine and has always been adamant that my TSH should be below 2.5. Both doctors have also told me that they want my levels to be very closely monitored if I get pregnant (we tried 6 mos. with the thyroid regulated to see if that did the trick, then a couple IUI rounds, gearing up to start IVF next month). Now, I'd say that I often ask for testing from both my endo & SGF to make sure all is good and to keep checking in on levels (my vitamin D is a little low, which SGF initially caught), so I think some self-advocacy helps, but I've found Dr. Nair at SGF to be good on my thyroid issues, FWIW.
