Hello again!

Follow your doctors advice - we cannot add on to what she has advised.

The issue of getting pregnant fully clothed and not having sex has already been addressed several times.
Best,

Hello manz

Thank you for writing.
Two women taking the same or similar medications will not necessarily have the same side effects. Your period may be irregular for reasons other than thyroid issues -like having irregular reproductive hormones. You can't compare your body to someone else's.
Your doctor can help you further.
