I have a enlarged thyroid on one side and wanted to know if you think it could be from having a baby? I gave birth 5 months ago... I have Graves Disease... I have never had this happen before so I am worried! Thank you for your time!

You should see your endocrinologist about this and make sure your thyroid hormone levels are in the normal range. Your hormone needs can change with having a baby, stress levels, and with weight changes, as well. If they are normal, you should ask about an ultrasound to see why one side is enlarged. Did you find it or did your doctor?
