The diagnosis of hyperthyroidism can feel overwhelming at first. Especially, on top of the anxiety and excitement of the changes your body is experiencing. But the diagnosis does not have to be a death sentence. No matter the cause, those with hyperthyroidism have very good long-term outcomes if treated and managed well. It is important to have a strong therapeutic alliance with both your obstetrician and endocrinologist. And to always advocate for yourself when something feels off!
