Should I reduce 125mcg Eltroxin for thyroid levels?
Hi I m on thyroid tablets of 125mcg eltroxin My current tsh is 0.012, t3 - 1.05, t4 - 11.5 Should I reduce the dosage to normalise
General Physician
Answered on 26th Aug '24
Based on the thyroid test results, you have slightly low thyroid levels as your TSH is 0.012. Your present dosage of eltroxin may be too high for you; this could be the case. Besides, these might be the possible reasons: you will feel jittery, lose weight, and have trouble sleeping. To correct the dosage, consult your doctor and suggest doing the treatment at the lower dosage to get your thyroid levels back in balance.

My mother is suffering from thyroid ,she had a mild stroke before some days now she is in bed .A physiotherapy is done every day at home.but she is very weak.we have done her thyroid test this is here T3-111.5 T4-9.02 TSH-7.110. Please let me know the exact power of her medicine.
Female | 68
It appears to me that she suffers from hypothyroidism because of a lack of energy amongst other symptoms. A high TSH means that the thyroid is not producing enough hormones. Possibly, she may have to adjust the dosage of her thyroid medication to correspond with these levels. Please ensure that she adheres to taking her drugs regularly as well as continuing physiotherapy for all-round healing.

Hi I am 17 years old girl . My height is 5.6 and my weight is 88 kgs . My problem is still I didn’t attend puberty
Female | 17
The reason is that each person achieves puberty at their age. Not developing breasts or getting a period by a certain age are some signs of delayed puberty. The reasons may be different. For example, a person's family history can play a role or some specific medical conditions may be involved. A well-balanced diet, regular exercise, and having a conversation with a nutritionist can be helpful to tackle the issue of delayed puberty.

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.

I have high sugar and have low sodium
Male | 65
People should be careful of consuming too much sugar and too little sodium as that can cause them to feel tired, unable to think properly, and generally weak. The sugar levels could rise due to diabetes while the sodium might be reduced through sweating excessively or taking some specific medication. To manage high sugar, one must eat healthily in addition to taking the drugs that have been prescribed for them. A person with low sodium can increase the amount of salt that they take or use drugs which should be administered under strict medical supervision.

triglyceride level all time between 240 to 300. It does not matter what I am eating. I followed strict diet but still result same. What I have to do?
Male | 26
If your triglycerides are regularly from 240 to 300, that’s high. Usually, too many triglycerides mean you don’t eat well (like junk food all the time) and you don’t do exercise. But sometimes, it can come from your family. Rarely have symptoms but maybe sometimes hurt your stomach or give you pancreatitis. Eat the right things more, exercise, and don’t smoke or drink so much if you want lower levels.

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.
