Fertility & thyroid cancer: I've got questions

How long has anyone waited to try to conceive after surgery? I feel about 50 percent myself not ideal but not the worst and we want another child but not sure if it’s worth waiting to feel “normal” or if we should just go for it because I have read it can take up to a year to feel like yourself again! Would love to know if anyone did get pregnant after surgery and what it was like for you?🫶

Hi @catealexis, I moved your question about how long to wait to get pregnant after surgery for thyroid cancer to this existing discussion that @nani95 started:

I did this so you can read the previous posts too.

Alexis, did you have any other treatment beyond surgery? Did you talk to your doctor whether you should wait and for how long?
