Hormone therapy is frequently used by transgender men and women as a part of the gender reassignment process.

"I am 19 years old. I have been feeling nauseous and vomiting, especially during meals, for the past four months. My thyroid condition was detected in the reports. I have been taking thyroid medication for the last two weeks, but my nausea and vomiting have not reduced at all. Please help me."

Female | 19

Enduring prolonged nausea and vomiting can be challenging. While these symptoms may be related to a thyroid condition, thyroid medication alone might not fully resolve them. It's important to discuss these ongoing symptoms with your healthcare provider. In some cases, your current treatment may need additional medications or adjustments to better manage the nausea and vomiting.

I have blood pressure. I'm taking nicardia retard. Now I'm undergoing infertility treatment. I'm taking dheapred, delsterone, aspirin 75 mg, estradiol valerate tablets.. Can i take these medicine with bp tablets

Female | 30

Nicardia tablets are used to control blood pressure. Infertility drugs are your other medications. Drugs can inhibit or enhance the action of other medicines and lead to adverse effects. The decision on whether it's safe to combine these medications should be made by your doctor.

Now in confusion whether to eat sizomant after 15 days or eat this 4 tablet

Female | 43

It looks like a sudden withdrawal of your medication resulted in several extremely uncomfortable problems such as vomiting, confusion, and anxiety. The new physician has prescribed a different set of drugs to you to alleviate the condition, but now you are having sleep issues. It is crucial to neither start nor stop drugs without consulting your doctor. You should give them a call and tell them how you feel.

Testosterone imbalance cause night fall in girls .cyprodoil tablet balance androgen testosterone harmon.am girl my testosterone zyda ha

Female | 22

Testosterone levels play an essential role in your overall health. Some of the symptoms of hormonal imbalance are anxiety, low energy, and rest disorder. In specific circumstances, the high levels of this hormone cause nocturnal emissions. The equilibrium of hormonal substances in the body is the key to well-being. Androgen levels are regulated by cyproterone acetate, a drug that helps to restore this balance. Always seek medical advice a healthcare provider for a particular diagnosis and decision of the most suitable treatment method. Your medical professional is going to give counseling and advice that are in line with your individual needs to assist you to regain your well-being.

Hello Dr, hope ur doing well! 23yrs old female not married Actually i wanna consult u abt taking Progyluton while i don’t have ovarian cysts neither irregular periods just that i got high testosterone 3.01 and prolactin 26.11 levels somehow. One of the physicians prescribe Cabergoline only that decrease prolactin but what abt testosterone as well, so what i gotta take? P.s. there’s hairsuitism only on chin and legs not chest and back Some pustules n papules acne as well but too rare. Thank you:))

Female | 23

High testoste­rone may cause unwanted hair growth and acne­. Cabergoline treats prolactin issue­s. However, spironolactone tackle­s excess testoste­rone, potentially reducing hirsutism and acne­ by lowering testosterone­ levels. It's wise to discuss this me­dication option with your doctor, as their guidance ensure­s your well-being.

Is my vitamin b12 and vitamin d normal? If not what medicine should i take or any other solution Vitamin B12-109 L pg/ml Vitamin d3 25 oh -14.75 ng/ml

Male | 24

Judging by your levels of Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D, it appears that they are low. Low B12 can be a reason for feeling tired and weak. Low Vitamin D can be a reason for bone pain and muscle weakness. You may need to get B12 and Vitamin D supplements. Besides, it's good to consume foods that are rich in these vitamins like fish, eggs, and dairy products.

Male | 38

You should discuss any insulin regimen changes with a doctor before you do anything. Both Fiasp and Novarapid are rapid-acting insulins to be used to treat diabetes by controlling blood sugar levels. It is recommended to follow only the insulin given by the doctor to avoid any complications.

Am unmarried girl i phase night fall three times ya two times every month So is this due to hormonal changes? And this will not have any effect on my married life and is not dangerous. ???

Female | 22

It's common for some girls not married to have nightfall (also called wet dreams) a couple of times a month. This is generally the result of hormonal fluctuations in your body. It is not a problem, and it will not have any effect on your married life or health. You can talk to a doctor for more reassurance if you are feeling worried.

Hi, i am a 30 year old male. i have panhypopituarism. have 4 hormone defieciencies such as growth hormone, hydrocortisone, thryoxin and testosterone. i got treated for other 3 hormones except testosterone and those are fine now . i went to 170cm height from 110 cm. after the HGH replacement. and for other two i am taking those as tablets. Now the issue is i started taking testosterone replacement as well for last 6 months. I got genital hair some strength in my body and my penile length increased. can get semen out from fapping. but the issue is testes havent dropped or descended. my flaccid penis is too small like a toddler. when erected its 6 inches. will it get ok by the time ? or any serious concerns

Male | 30

Your hormone­ therapies' progress is wonde­rful. Changes often require­ patience, so don't fret. Continue­d testosterone tre­atment may aid your underdeve­loped testes and small flaccid pe­nis symptoms. However, consulting your doctor about concerns e­nsures proper progress tracking.

An elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone may indicate an underactive thyroid, which can lead to fatigue or weight gain. The elevated blood sugar level points towards potential insulin resistance, often linked to lifestyle factors like diet and exercise. The mildly high hemoglobin A1c indicates you're in the prediabetes range. I recommend focusing on a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, alongside regular physical activity. It’s also important to consult a healthcare professional for an in-depth evaluation and tailored advice. They can provide the best guidance moving forward.
