Postpartum Thyroiditis Fact Sheet For New Moms

https://easylivingmom.com/postpartum-thyroiditis-fact-sheet-for-new-moms/ Postpartum thyroiditis is a condition that occurs in about 5% of women after pregnancy. It is when the immune system produces anti-thyroid antibodies which attack the thyroid gland, causing it to become inflamed. The thyroid is critical to your body’s hormone regulation, and for pregnant women already going through hormone changes, it is a common issue they experience. Luckily for most, it is not a permanent condition and typically wanes a year after delivery. Still, it’s good to know the risk factors and how to treat it if you are affected.
