An elevated TSH level during pregnancy may indicate an underactive thyroid that needs proper monitoring. Thyroid levels should be controlled during pregnancy to support healthy development of the baby. Follow a balanced diet and take any prescribed supplements regularly. Consult your doctor so the thyroid levels can be reviewed and managed safely.
