Weight loss may be due to different causes such as lack of proper diet, stress, or an underlying health issue. You might also have symptoms like fatigue, weakness, or changes in appetite. For this, eating a balanced diet, drinking enough water, and going to a dietitian for further evaluation and guidance are the important things to do.

Before I share my worries I have to always note that I am a childhood cancer survivor Osteosarcoma I am now 19 and I was diagnosed at 11, I have been free from cancer since 13 years old I have worries of having cushin disease, I show all the symptoms and researched on YouTube by various videos of different doctors speaking of the subject. I gained a lot of weight in such a rapid speed even though I was very skinny, no matter how heathy I eat eating enough protein, cutting gluten and diary out as well as sugar I feel like i keep gaining weight. I have a fat pad at the back of my neck and the fat seems to go to my back and stomach, have awful bruising on my feet sometimes, horrible exhaustion by just lifting my arms and my bones sound like they crack a lot. Alongside many other symptoms like insulin resistance a doctor noticed due to darkening to my neck, but diabetes was ruled out when I went to a doctor and she said she did see many signs of a hormonal issue just by looking at me, referred me to a endocrinologist. I suspected high cortisol because i have dealt with a history of psychological issues such as diagnosed depression. I am suffering and will see this specialist soon, but my general blood lab tests have been “normal” before, I have read out of fear of not being heard by my doctor that lab tests sometimes do not show abnormal cortisol levels if the cortisol is not or condition of it is not too advanced I want to know all the tests that I need done that are necessary to be diagnosed, and what alternatives can I discuss with my doctors if the labs come out “normal” I am aware i need to advocate for myself sometimes I just dont know how to word it because of fear of seeming ignorant and like i know more than my doctor, I dont think this I just want my pain to be over! I think hearing advice from a professional would be best on how i can best approach advocation for my health.

The symptoms you're experiencing could be related to Cushing's disease. It's important to discuss the necessary tests with your doctor to get an accurate diagnosis. These tests include a cortisol urine test, blood cortisol levels, and an MRI to check your pituitary gland. Cortisol levels can fluctuate, so multiple tests at different times may be needed for a definitive diagnosis. Even if initial tests are normal but your doctor suspects Cushing's disease based on your symptoms, further testing and monitoring might be required. Be open and honest with your doctors, ask questions, and express your concerns to ensure you receive the best care.

Male | 48
It looks like the blood sugar level of this 48-year-old person is extremely high. If the HbA1c is over 10% and the average blood glucose level is 263.3 mg/dL, it means the diabetes is not well controlled. Common symptoms include frequent urination, thirst, weight loss, and tiredness. This could be due to not taking medications properly or not following a healthy diet. To manage this, eat a balanced diet, take their medicines as prescribed, and exercise regularly.

Female | 25
Irregular periods, acne, hair fall, and thyroid problems can be related to each other. Thyroid issues can interfere with your hormones, thus causing period and skin problems. Hair loss could also be caused by thyroid deficiency. Checking up with a doctor for your thyroid levels and being treated for it can help normalize the situation. They may prescribe specific medications or suggest other treatments to ameliorate the symptoms.

Estrogen dominance and high testosterone levels can lead to symptoms like mood swings, weight gain, and irregular periods. These imbalances may arise from factors such as stress, diet, and hormonal changes. Incorporating flaxseeds, pumpkin seeds, beans, and sesame seeds into your diet can be beneficial as they provide essential nutrients and may help support hormonal balance. However, it’s important to listen to your body and consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

When I wake up in the morning and I haven't even drank, I still pee a lot. comes once but Its range is more and after that I sleep and then I go to the washroom, still I come out with a lot of urine. Its range is more without water. Why is this so? I neither have diabetes nor UTI infection Am unmarried
Female | 22
Human beings tend to urinate more in the morning than in the evening after sleeping for a long period. This is because our kidneys expel more of the blood impurities overnight. Therefore, we should expect to pee more after we wake up. In the absence of other symptoms like pain or unusual color, it is usually normal.

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.

Male | 24
Having low vitamin D can make you feel very tired. It can also cause pain in your legs. The medicines you are taking are good. But it takes time to feel better. It usually takes a few weeks or months for your vitamin D levels to go up. And it takes time to feel normal again. Keep taking your medicines every day.

High blood sugar levels are usually related to diabetes. Other than the feeling of thirst and fatigue, you might have been going to the bathroom often. You'll benefit from a healthier diet by exercising regularly and the regulation of your blood sugar levels can be the solution to your problem. It is essential to consult an endocrinologist so that he can advise you appropriately.

I accidentally took 2.5 instead of .25 semiglutide. What should I do.
Female | 51
The semaglutide you took too much of may cause stomach discomfort, diarrhea, or increased sweating. The risk of receiving too much is the probability of being unable to lower your blood sugar levels. You should drink water and eat a sweet thing like a piece of candy or juice. Don't worry; if you feel discomfort, you may seek the advice of a medical professional immediately. Please take care!

The two conditions relate to hormone imbalance in the body. Thyroid problems can make you feel tired, gain or lose weight, and shiver. PCOS may cause menstrual irregularities, acne, and fertility problems. The best way to keep these conditions under control is with a healthy lifestyle including regular workouts and a balanced diet. Hormone regulation drugs may be required too.
