Can a TSH level of 6.0 mIU/L during the first six weeks of pregnancy cause any harm to fetal development if the condition was promptly treated and thyroid levels have since remained well-controlled?
Since your condition was promptly treated and your thyroid levels have since remained well-controlled, the risk of any harm to your baby's development is extremely low. A TSH of 6.0 mIU/L is only mildly elevated. While thyroid hormones are important in early pregnancy, your quick start on thyroid hormone replacement (such as levothyroxine) successfully protected your baby during those crucial early weeks. Consistent monitoring will keep you both safe.
