45. The Connection Between Thyroid Health & Fertility
Did you know that your thyroid could be impacting your ability to conceive—even if your labs are “normal”? In this episode of The Vibrantly You® Podcast, Meg and Caitlin explore the powerful connection between thyroid function and fertility, including Meg’s own personal journey.
We’re breaking down how under-active or over-active thyroid conditions can affect pregnancy outcomes—and what you can do about it.
Inside this episode, we cover:
- How thyroid hormones (T3, T4, TSH) influence reproductive health
- Why "normal" labs aren’t always optimal when you're trying to conceive (TTC)
- The risks of untreated hypothyroidism during pregnancy
- What labs to request: TSH, Free T3, Free T4, antibodies & reverse T3
- How nutrition, stress, and sleep directly impact your thyroid
- The key role of nutrients like iodine, selenium, zinc, and iron for hormone balance
Whether you’re trying to conceive or simply want to better understand your body, this episode will help you advocate for deeper testing and smarter support.
Share this with a friend who’s navigating fertility frustrations, and don’t forget to follow the show for more evidence-based, empowering conversations on women’s health.
