Default hypothyroid

I was diagnosed this past January with hypothyroid. My highest being 11.3. I went on synthroid and got it down to 1.0!! We did our cycle after that and it resulted in a positive. However, I m/c at 7 weeks. I am now about to start next cycle(last day of bcp yesterday!) and had thyroid retested about a month ago. It was way too low (around .01) so they lowered my dosage of synthroid from 100 to 75mg. Just got tested again and it is 6.8!!!! My doctor just immediately uped the dose to 88mg. If I get period within the next few days is it safe to start second cycle? My old RE wouldn't start it until TSH was below 3. Do you think that the 88mg will get it down by the time of my transfer (aproximately 2 weeks)? If not, do you think it's safe to start the cycle? I do not want to wait till August and I know you guys are closed last few weeks of july. But I do want everything to b ok and not risk a positive result b/c of this.
thanks!

I would like the TSH to be normal before starting.
