Hyperthyroidism
Hey ladies! I have been having some health issues the past few weeks and found out I have hyperthyroidism. Apparently, it is common for postpartum women. If you are experiencing heart palpitations, hair loss, being abnormally hot, dizziness, restlessness, nervousness, difficulty falling asleep, puffy eyes, and mood swings, go see a doctor! I had no clue about this!

@Bayan unfortunately I didn’t ask if my medication is going to affect my supply. And I am starting it tomorrow! So hopefully it works and won’t affect my supply…lol
@Maria K did you have problems with losing weight/gaining it? With hyper, I have experienced some unhealthy weight loss but my medication is supposed to slow down my metabolism which will make me gain…and I’m so worried about it 😣

Oh wow! I'm experiencing all of that except for the heart palpitations. Gonna definitely ask about it at my next doctor's visit. Are you taking any medication for it? And does it affect breastfeeding? I hope you're feeling better now 🤗
