This document discusses hyperthyroidism in pregnancy. It covers the risks of hyperthyroidism to both mother and fetus, including miscarriage, preterm delivery, and complications in the newborn like low birth weight, prematurity, and hypothyroidism. It provides guidelines for monitoring thyroid levels during pregnancy and treating with anti-thyroid medications like PTU to maintain the mother's thyroid levels in a safe range and minimize risks to the fetus. Fetal thyroid function relies on maternal thyroid hormones early in pregnancy, so controlling the mother's hyperthyroidism is important for the baby's development.
