  1. What Are the Problems the Thyroid Can Cause in Pregnant Women and What Can You Do About Them? The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland in your neck. It plays a major role in maintaining health. It affects the heart rate and it also controls the metabolism. But if this thyroid gland makes too little or too much of the hormones, then it is called a thyroid disorder. There are a lot of women who develop this disorder before pregnancy, but for some women, it happens soon after giving birth and it needs pregnancy thyroid treatment. There are certain complications and risks that you can develop as a result of the thyroid during or after pregnancy and you should definitely take pregnancy thyroid treatment. Let's discuss the risk in detail. Anaemia Anaemia is a condition where there is a lack of healthy red blood cells or there is dysfunctionality in the blood cells in the body. As a result of this, reduced oxygen flow occurs in the body, and one gets tired very easily. The symptoms include pallor of the skin, fatigue, shortness of breath, headache, or fast heartbeat. Thyroid disorders can cause anaemia. Thyroid hormones can suppress the activity of bone marrow that makes red blood cells. Gestational hypertension

  2. Gestational hypertension is a condition when one has high blood pressure at the time of pregnancy and does not have protein in the urine or has other heart or kidney problems. In thyroid disease, it can cause hard muscles and heart rate, as well as stiff blood vessels, which results in gestational hypertension. Preeclampsia Preeclampsia is a high blood pressure disorder that can occur at the time of pregnancy. Just like gestational diabetes, it is also related to high blood pressure and protein in the urine. Placental abruption It is the condition when the placenta separates from the inner wall of the uterus before birth. It is one of those conditions that can deprive the baby of getting oxygen and nutrients and even cause heavy bleeding for the mother. Early delivery is also noted in placental abruption. Thyroid and maternal hypothyroxinemia are associated with placental abruption. Postpartum haemorrhage This is the condition that occurs when a woman gives birth and faces heavy bleeding. All this is a rare but very serious condition. If you have a thyroid condition, you can have problems related to premature birth, miscarriage, and stillbirth. Myxedema It is the state of severe and extreme complications of hypothyroidism when this occurs and there are multiple organ abnormalities. It can also be fatal.
