As thyrotoxicosis, hypothyroidism in pregnant women is also associated with an increase in the frequency of miscarriages, stillbirths and developmental abnormalities.

The frequency of developmental abnormalities in cases of treatment with PropicilВ® does not differ from the frequency of spontaneous abnormalities of the fetus.

The dose of PropitsilВ® should be as low as possible to avoid miscarriage, as well as the development of hypothyroidism and goiter in the fetus.

In the last three months of pregnancy, a spontaneous decrease in the severity of thyrotoxicosis is often observed.

During pregnancy, treatment is carried out under strict supervision (the level of thyroid hormones should be at the upper limit of normal, thyrotropin level should be below normal).

During the period of breastfeeding, PropicilВ® is considered the drug of choice, because its concentration in breast milk is 1/10 of the level in the mother's blood serum. However, observation of the newborn is necessary, as There are reports of individual cases of hypothyroidism.

With a combination of diffuse toxic goiter and pregnancy, PropicilВ® is prescribed only as monotherapy.
