Hi, I am 27 years old. In 2012 december i went under Total Thyroidectomy  and found that i had papillary thyroid cancer. In january 2013 i got my RAI treatment and body scan and again another body scan end of june and after that the doctor said i was clear of cancer. My endo put me on birth controls and told me that i have to wait for at least two years before getting pregnant. I have two kids and i would like to have another ASAP. I am on 125mcg of eltroxin right now. i recently stopped my birth control pills and now I am not having my period. Can you please advice me how and when should i try to conceive?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. You should wait for at least 2 years from the date of your RIA treatment for pregnancy. After 2 years of RIA treatment, you can plan pregnancy. Since you were on birth control pills and not having periods, possibility of hormonal imbalance is more. So better to first get done hormone levels to rule out hormonal imbalance. Once your hormones are normalized and you get your regular menstrual cycle, you can get pregnant. So consult gynecologist and discuss all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
