    It’s also important to note that the latest guidelines on pregnancy from the American Thyroid Association actually recommend TRAb testing at 20-24 weeks for *all* pregnant women with a history of Graves’, regardless of treatment option selected. The involvement of a maternal-fetal specialist is recommended if antibodies are extremely elevated.
