Masturbation is a normal thing that comes with body changes occurring during puberty. The growth spurt, hair growth, and other changes you mentioned are typical signs of puberty. The body is simply going through the process of normal growth and development. Continue to look after yourself by eating right, staying active, and seeking help from a trusted adult if you have any concerns.

I have subclinical hypothyroidism and i have been taking levothyroxine. I want to include Reseveratrol+Nad to my routine. Is it safe for me to?
Female | 30
You're taking levothyroxine for subclinical hypothyroidism and are considering adding Resveratrol+NAD. Subclinical hypothyroidism means your thyroid isn't working properly, but you may not have noticeable symptoms yet. Common symptoms like tiredness, weight gain, and feeling cold may develop. Levothyroxine helps regulate your thyroid hormones. Resveratrol+NAD is a supplement some people take, but there is limited evidence of its effects on thyroid function. It's important to discuss any new supplements with your endocrinologist to ensure they won't interfere with your current treatment plan.

Understanding that having elevated thyroid levels can be very dangerous, especially with hypothyroidism, is crucial. Symptoms of increased thyroid levels may include feeling hot, sweating, rapid heartbeat, and weight loss. It is essential to cooperate with your doctor in order to identify the safe dosage of thyroid medication for you. Taking the right amount can help alleviate symptoms and keep you well.

Hi I have a problem.hormone imbalance
Female | 37
Hormone imbalance can cause tiredness, weight changes, irregular periods, and mood swings. It happens when hormones in your body aren't balanced. Stress, poor diet, or medical conditions can make hormones imbalanced. To fix hormones, eat healthy foods, reduce stress, and exercise regularly. Sometimes, hormone therapy from a doctor helps balance hormones.

Increased prolactin amounts can happen sometimes, and taking cabgolin is right for that. This medicine can bring about side-effects like nausea, dizziness, headaches. Elevated prolactin might make periods irregular or milk production start. To minimize discomfort, consume cabgolin after meals. If problems persist, talk to your doctor.

Male | 19
During puberty, it's normal to notice more hair on your legs, hands, and chest, along with a growth spurt. These changes are part of becoming a teenager and are not caused by masturbation. Instead, focus on healthy habits like eating well, exercising, and getting enough sleep.

I have period 14 day but whyy? This is normal?
Female | 17
Among the most general triggers for continuous bleeding are hormonal changes, tension, or else certain body conditions. Signs of the disease might be weakness or discomfort. Remember to observe the rise of any other signs like heavy bleeding or severe pain. In that case, or if it keeps for a long time, I would consult with the doctor first of all. They will provide various ideas and will decide whether further observation is necessary.

These might be symptoms of many things such as an infection or not drinking enough fluid. However, there are some things which could help in the meantime: make sure that you drink plenty of water, and get some rest. But if this goes on much longer without any improvement then I would advise seeking medical attention. They can give you proper treatment for whatever is causing all these different problems.

Today his blood test come and his fasting blood sugar came 171 plz tell me what to do now
Male | 45
The fasting level of 171 is too high for normal blood sugar. It can point to diabetes. Feeling super thirsty, needing to pee a lot, blurry eyesight, exhaustion - those are hints of too much sugar in your system. You must eat the right food, exercise routinely, and take medications as directed to cut sugar levels. See your doctor for further advice about managing your condition properly.

Female | 31
You might be having a thyroid problem that has disturbed your hormonal balance. No periods are possible if the hormones are not incompatible. Symptoms are irregular periods, weight variations, and tiredness. The cure is to consult with an endocrinologist, a doctor who is a specialist in hormones. They will recommend the tests and the therapies to balance your hormones and return to normal periods.

I have hypothyroidism and taking medicine.I have checked thyroid today and I want to show the thyroid report
Female | 26
You were diagnosed with hypothyroidism. That means your thyroid gland isn't producing enough hormones. The report shows levels of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). High TSH indicates low thyroid hormone production. Thyroid medication helps restore hormone balance, relieving symptoms. You can also visit an endocrinologist for evaluation.

I am 55 year old person and having thyroid problem for last few years. I am taking medicine EUTHYROX 25. But I am in doubt with this medicine. Recently I tested my TSH test again, which result is below... T3 - 1.26 ng/mL T4 - 7.66 ug/dL TSH - 4.25 ml/UL (CLIA METHOD) Please suggest correct type of thyroid and medicine. Thanks
Male | 55
Your TSH level is a bit high, which means your thyroid isn’t making enough hormones. This can make you feel tired, gain weight, and be sensitive to the cold. People who have hypothyroidism usually take EUTHYROX 25 -- you might end up needing more or something else entirely. You must talk to your doctor about what all this means so they can help come up with a plan that will work best for you.

I was diagnosed with Grave's Disease with TSH level almost zero in August 2023. I was prescribed Methimez 15 mg initially, which was gradually reduced to 2.5mg daily. My TSH level is currently 7.9, FT4=0.82, FT3=2.9. Should I still be taking daily methimez 2.5mg or should I fully stop it/reduce it less than 2.5mg daily since TSH level is currently 7.9. History of medical conditions: I was diagnosed with Grave's Disease in August 2023 with TSH level touching zero. Current medication details: I was prescribed Methimez 15mg daily which was gradually reduced and is currently prescribed at 2.5mg on a daily basis. History of medication for the same complaint: None
Male | 41
Graves' Disease affects thyroid function. Your recent TSH test result at 7.9 shows an imbalance. To regulate hormone levels, continue taking Methimazole 2.5mg daily as prescribed. Stopping this medicine on your own risks causing uncontrolled symptoms. These may include rapid heartbeat, weight fluctuations, and fatigue. If you have any worries or questions, be sure to discuss them with your doctor.

Recently did lab test for LH - 41, FSH - 44, E2 - 777, can you explain what does this reading mean
Female | 50
Hormones like LH, FSH, and E2 affect our bodies. Your levels suggest hormone imbalance. Irregular periods, hot flashes, fertility issues - these symptoms arise. Stress, medications, and medical conditions disrupt balance. Lifestyle adjustments, medicines, or hormone therapy treat imbalances. Consult a doctor for personalized advice.

I am 30 weeks pregnant with diabetis. I am on 12 unit insulin for lunch and dinner. And 14 unit in the night for next day fasting level. I am not eating anything sweet or rice or potato still my sugar is not in control. I eat only two roti dal and sabji in day and night. In the middle I eat apple and nuts. Only. Can you guide what could be the issue. Should I increase my insulin unit. Sometimes with the same food same unit of insulin it comes normal in range like 110 but most of the time it comes 190. For morning I eat besan or dal chilla or boiled chana.
Female | 33
It is good you are taking care of your diabetes with insulin and good food. But, blood sugar can be hard to control during pregnancy because of hormone changes. Eating two rotis with dal and sabji, plus an apple and nuts is a wise choice. Check your blood sugar at different times to see how your body reacts to food and insulin. You may need to change your insulin doses with your doctor's help.

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.

I am wondering can you do a test for intracellular calcium levels yourself? If the intracellular calcium levels are too high, would that show up in calcium blood test?
Male | 34
You cannot test your cell calcium levels by yourself. High calcium in the cells may not appear in a normal blood test. Too much calcium inside your cells can make you feel weak and tired. It can also make you confused. Some medicines may cause high cell calcium levels. If you have high cell calcium, your doctor may change your medicine or try other treatments.

Am diabetic since 15 years. BP normal as am taking medication. I take insulin Actrapid 100 u 14-3-10 and toujeo 28-0-0 along with Sitagliptin OD 100. fp sugar 140-160 ,PP 210-220. I feel dizziness in evening between 6 and 7. That time sugar level is 140-160. Is it because sugar variation. If eat something dizziness goes. Is it because of insulin
Male | 73
Your insulin lowers blood sugar, causing dizziness when levels drop in evening. Eating raises blood sugar, helping dizziness. Consume snacks before 6 pm to test if it improves. Persistent dizziness requires discussion with healthcare provider. Small adjustments may make big difference. Frequent monitoring helps regulate sugar fluctuations. Maintaining stable levels prevents dizzy spells. Seeking medical guidance ensures proper care.

My TSH LEVEL IS 6.5 , WHAT IS TREATMENT My B12 is 198
Male | 54
Your TSH is 6.5 which means that you may have a thyroid problem. One of the symptoms of this could be feeling weak, gaining weight, or getting cold easily. In addition, with a B12 level of only 198, you are also at risk of feeling numb and weak. You might require medicine to fix the thyroid issue while low B12 might call for adjusting your diet or taking supplements.
