for a fact that they haven't specifically ordered those tests. However, I know they do a very detailed blood workup on you when you get pregnant. Shamefully, I have forgotten at every OB appointment to get a copy of these results. I have to be forgiven somewhat, because I was pretty much just trying to not throw up for months. I had no idea that there was a relationship between low cortisol and nausea/vomiting. Makes sense and gives me hope that maybe my next pregnancy, I won't feel like dying to get away from the sickness if I can get it under control. Seriously, I wouldn't wish HG on my worst enemy. So what can be done for low cortisol during pregnancy?. Just got the call from my doctor and got my last two lab results from them. The first is when I really started to feel Hypo prior to that, I felt fine except for the HG symptoms, which were all encompasing . If you are in fact over range by that much, it would suggest that there is a reason you are pooling. Cortisol seems like the most likely culprit. I'm so sorry you are going through this right now. Love being me again and can't wait to be a mommy!!!! bcopi. I agree with Bree Keep in mind also that thyroid hormones bind with estrogen. Estrogen increases with pregnancy, resulting in increased binding. Ooh, good call Laurie! Didn't even think of that. Thyroid function tests are not uncommonly ordered during pregnancy and interpreting the results is challenging. Physiologically, the concentration of thyroid stimulating hormone TSH normally decreases during the first trimester of pregnancy during which there is maximal cross-stimulation of the TSH receptor by HCG. The TSH concentration then returns to its pre-pregnancy level in the second trimester and then rises slightly in the third. However, most of the changes still occur within the normal non-pregnant range. Clinical indicators are usually confounding due to symptoms of pregnancy that can mimic thyrotoxicosis such as nausea, vomiting, heat intolerance, fatigue, anxiety and palpitations. The presence of a goitre, especially in patients with a borderline iodine deficiency, can further confound the diagnosis. Graves' disease is the commonest cause of true thyrotoxicosis in pregnancy. Where there is prolonged and intractable nausea and vomiting, Graves' disease should be distinguished from hyperemesis gravidarum of pregnancy and transient hyperthyroxinaemia of pregnancy.
