Terrible pathologies of a child from a mother with a diseased thyroid gland – endocrinologist Lebedeva revealed what can happen to such babies

Before conceiving a baby, it is important to undergo a hormone test

Doctor Dilyara Lebedeva encourages women to undergo examination before conceiving a child, so as not to regret it later. She posted recommendations on her Telegram channel.

The embryo’s thyroid gland begins to work independently in the second trimester of pregnancy, and before that the fetus develops using the mother’s thyroid hormones, which enter through the placenta.

And just at this time, such hormones are extremely important for the formation of the central nervous system, hearing organs, intellect and those brain structures that will later be responsible for motor functions.

Accordingly, if these hormones are not enough, the child may be born deaf and mute or with motor impairments. Also, the lack of these hormones is fraught with irreparable losses of intelligence for the baby.

In the expectant mother, disturbances in the functioning of this organ can be caused not only by autoimmune diseases; it can be negatively affected by smoking and deficiency of iron, vitamin B12, and folic acid.
