Understanding Thyroid Disorders in Pregnancy

New On-Demand Webinar

An estimated 20 million Americans have some form of thyroid disease and up to 60 percent can be unaware of their condition. Women are five to eight times more likely than men to have thyroid problems. Due to the predominant nature in women, it will also affect approximately 10-15% during pregnancy. Understanding the role that thyroid dysfunction plays in pregnancy is critical due to the natural fluctuation of hormones and how they affect the mom and baby.
