How much fish oil do I need daily at 15?

I am 15 years old and I decided to take fish oil capsules how much mg and how much per day I need to take

1 Answer

Answered on 11th Oct '24

Fish oil capsules, not to mention the heart and the little tiny engine before the brain, are well capable of helping your heart and brain. An amount of 15-year-olds can expect to take a 250-500mg per day dose. It should also be noted that the intake was indeed too much and caused an upset stomach, therefore, should be disregarded. Be sure to consult with a dermatologist about the new supplement you want to start using.

Questions & Answers on "Dermatology" (2243)

Age-41yrs. From last 3 years suffering from a black patch all around my lips, specially below the lips on both sides. I had visited a doctor there who detected the problem to be Perical pig / Melasma Pg as written in the prescription. Treated me with the following medicines For the 1st month- Cetaphil gentle cleanser, Flutivate E cream alternate night and Kojic cream once in a day. Next visit I was advised to use Kojiglo cream once daily, Eukroma+Flutivate E cream on the patches twice a week. But I did not find any difference. I had informed the doctor that I cannot afford a very costly treatment, but on her assurance during my third visit I was applied Glycocil pack but yet felt no difference. Then was asked to use Dermadew Caloe lotion every day and Azideenz 10% gel once a day, this gel made my skin rough, when complained she advised me to use only Dermadew lotion day and night daily. My face is 2 to 3 shades darker than my body color. What to do now to get rid of this patch

Female | 41

Without a proper evaluation and diagnosis, I can't say. But normally, suggested treatments for perical pigmentation include topical medications and laser treatments and I do not recommend flutivate cream for pigmentation. However, based on your individual condition, the doctor will recommend the best treatment for you.

Male | 20

You may have a hernia. This occurs when internals are pushed through a weak part in a muscle. Although there is no pain now, it should be examined by a doctor. They may advise treatment such as an operation to repair the damage and avoid further problems.

I applied hair removal spray on my chest and legs. Now I am feeling itchy and red rashes have appeared on my legs.

Male | 24

Itchy and red rashes are some of the common signs of sensitivity when your skin's non-acceptance is projected. This might be due to the presence of certain chemicals in the spray to which your skin is sensitive. Perhaps, you should try a gentle body lotion to reduce the itching and rashes.

I'm 28 years and suffering from PCOD. I have thick hair in chin, neck and chest. I usually use the epilator to remove the hairs but after 7-10 days, it regrows back. Can you please suggest ways to rid of it permanently?

Female | 28

• Polycystic Ovary Disease (PCOD) is caused due to production of immature or partially mature eggs by the ovaries in response to poor lifestyle, obesity, stress and hormonal balance.

• Excessive hair growth in the face, chest and back is associated with imbalance in the male hormone called Testosterone. Other symptoms associated include menstrual irregularity, acne, obesity and insulin resistance.

• Treating the underlying condition which is PCOD will help you get rid of the excessive hair growth.

• Medicine such as Clomifene is recommended for treatment as it encourages monthly release of egg from the ovaries and Metformin is prescribed to reduce the insulin resistance.

 

Lifestyle changes include:

Dietary Changes –

  Optimum diet includes a range of foods from many food categories, including healthy carbohydrates like vegetables and fruits, lean meats like chicken, fish, and high fibre grains.  

 Foods with a low glycemic index enable the body to release insulin slowly and gradually, allowing your body to utilise food as energy rather than store it as fat. Fiber-rich foods also aid with blood sugar regulation.

 Avoid refined carbohydrates, which are found in processed meals such as white flour, rice, potatoes, and sugar. Sugary beverages, such as soda and juice, should also be avoided.

Maintain Healthy weight –  

 Weight loss should be about half to 1 kg per week for 6 months, with the other method based on the amount of weight lost.

 Avoid crash diets since they deprive your body of essential vitamins, carbs, proteins, and minerals.

 When you go on a crash diet, your body will actually destroy muscle tissue to supply enough energy for your brain to operate.

Exercise regularly –

 Aids in the fight against obesity by burning calories and increasing muscle mass, both of which reduce insulin resistance. Exercise can also help decrease cholesterol and other hormone levels, such as testosterone.

 Physical activity is also vital. Moderate amounts of physical exercise for 30 to 45 minutes per day, 3 to 5 days per week, should be encouraged at first.

Consult your Gynecologists for starting with your treatment and take the aid of a nutritionist in order to design a customized diet plan.

can doxycycline and ambroxol capsules cure syphilis

Male | 24

Syphilis is an infection passed through sexual contact. It can cause sores, a rash, fever, and damage to the body if not treated properly. Doxycycline and ambroxol capsules won't heal syphilis. Syphilis is treated with certain antibiotics that are prescribed by doctors. It's the right way to get a diagnosis and treatment of complications. Don't let it go on; go to a doctor if you suspect you have syphilis.

Psoriasis is a common skin disorder that causes red, scaly patches. It happens when the immune system overacts, leading to faster skin cell growth. Symptoms include itching and dryness. Treatments include creams, ointments, and medications to relieve symptoms. Remember to moisturize and avoid triggers like stress and certain foods.

On my penis small red rash and itching And upper body also effected

Male | 32

This could be a case of dermatitis which is a skin condition caused by such things as allergies, irritants, or infections. To make this disease go away, try not to get in contact with any irritant, wear loose clothes as well as the right detergent, and apply mild soap. The use of a sensitive skin moisturizer can soothe your skin, as well, and be the ending part.

LINEATOR & LYCOMIX Q10 BOTH MEDICINE IS SAME.

Male | 39

Lineator and Lycomix Q10 never will be the same. They are quite different. Lineator is a medicine for treating upset stomach and relieving acid reflux. Lycomix Q10, on the other hand, is a supplement that contains the active ingredient Coenzyme Q10. It is mostly taken for improving heart health and for boosting energy. Don't forget to consult your doctor to determine if new drugs and/or supplements are right for you.

I want to know about genital warts

Female | 25

Genital warts result from a virus which spreads via sex; they resemble tiny bumpy growths and may appear pink or flesh-colored, sometimes causing itchiness or pain. A dermatologist should be consulted for treatment; this could involve prescribing a cream or carrying out procedures to remove them. The use of protection during sexual activity can help prevent their transmission.
