Could a Thyroid Test Indicate a Medicine Change?

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

Answered on 10th June '24

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.

Hi , My belly has been growing day by day and been losing hair , peeing alot and my lower back is very stiff

Female | 23

You might be experiencing symptoms of diabetes. In diabetes, weight gain can lead to a bigger belly, and hair loss may occur. Frequent urination is common as your body tries to remove excess sugar. Lower back stiffness could be related to kidney issues linked with diabetes. It's important to eat healthy, exercise, and see a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Female | 37

When the levels of your thyroid are too high or too low, you may experience a lot of discomfort. Signs and symptoms of high levels of thyroid hormone in the bloodstream (hyperthyroidism) can include nervousness, insomnia, and spontaneous weight loss. You will need to collaborate with your doctor to determine the right amount of medication for you. If you think that your levels are off, you must raise this issue with them.

Hi .dr Please tell me that asghand testosterone increase krta women ka bhi? Mera testosterone already zyda but mery herbalist nay herbs ma asghand bhi include ki .mujy sumj nai a rhi kya yeh shi ha?

Female | 23

Asghand, also known as ashwagandha, can affect hormone levels, including testosterone. In women with higher testosterone, it might be beneficial but can also lead to unwanted symptoms such as increased hair growth or mood changes. It's essential to monitor your body's response when introducing new herbs. I recommend discussing this with a healthcare provider to tailor your approach, ensuring it's safe and suitable for your health needs. A professional can offer personalized advice based on your specific situation, ensuring you achieve your wellness goals effectively.

I have severe deficiency of vitamin d and i have 7.17 vitamin d3 so can you plzz help me

Female | 22

Your vitamin D might be a little low. If you don’t get enough sunlight, have a diet low in certain nutrients, or suffer from some medical conditions, you may feel tired, have aches and pains, or weak bones. You can add fish and eggs to your meals more often, spend time outside, or take supplements with this vitamin to increase its level in the body. You should consult your healthcare provider for more information.

Hi my vitamin d tests came back as 26.3 Can i take vit d3 60000iu capsule weekly once and till how much time i should continue

Male | 39

You have low vitamin D, only 26.3. That's too little­. Low vitamin D causes tiredness, we­ak muscles, and bone pain. Take 60000 IU vitamin D3 capsule­s weekly. Do it for 8 to 12 wee­ks, or how long your doctor says. Get tested again to che­ck if your levels improve. Eat he­althy foods and spend some time in the­ sun to raise vitamin D further.

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.

I Suffering from thyroid. Bot present time my thyroid is normal 0.51. and before is 178. When my thyroid is normal.my hair is fall very fastly. Why my hair is fall

Female | 39

When the thyroid lacks only 0.51, a hair problem or a problem with hair growth can occur. Rapid hair loss is the most common symptom of thyroid disorder. By the end of the form, they will have to be reduced in size and fall off. Your hair may seize to fall out due to your thyroid levels once they become balanced. Besides eating healthily, exercising managing stress, and not using harsh chemicals on hair can stop hair fall.

Female | 29

Your symptoms are likely caused by Cushing's syndrome. This results from your body's overproduction of cortisol. This may include weight gain, lethargy, and mood swings. A doctor should be consulted to receive a diagnosis through tests. Typically, a doctor either gives you medication or does surgery to decrease the cortisol levels for the treatment.

Male | 19

Sometimes, people­ have delayed growth in are­as like the chest, hands, and legs. Ge­netics or hormonal imbalances could cause this. Usually, the­se catches up as you grow. Eat healthy, slee­p well, and stay active to support growth. If worried, chatting with your doctor may reassure­ and guide you.

I'm Farhanaz Parvin I'm 27 years old. HCG 5000 is not working for me.how to take 1000hcg injection?is there a gap of 12 hours will it works?

Female | 27

If the 5000 HCG isn't working well for you, it's best to bring to your doctor's attention for a dosage adjustment. The 1000 HCG injection plus 12 hours is not likely to work and may even cause side effects. The resulting signs can be hormone disturbances and pregnancy problems. The doctor will indicate the correct dosage to help you feel better.

Hi, I know there is a very slim chance that you will respond. But can I ask you a question; I have hasimotos (diagnosed 7 years ago). I function the best when my tsh level is around 0.8. I had a bloodtest 7 weeks ago and out of nowhere my tsh level was 2.9, I was also very tired etc. So my doctor and i decided to up my medication from 100mcg to 112 mcg. however the last 4 weeks ive been gaining weight like crazy. Atleast 3,5 kg.I also have a lot of energy, unstoppable hunger and feel very aggatated. I did another blood test and my tsh level is now 0,25.

Female | 19

Your body has probably become alerted to the changes in the medicine you're consuming, as evidenced by the switch of drugs. A sudden drop in your TSH may cause you to have symptoms such as a feeling that your energy has escalated, increased appetites, and weight gain. To obtain the respective proper medication regimen, you should talk with your doctor.

کیا Pcos You can have a cup of tea a day?? This will not disturb the hormones ??If there is estrogen dominance or excess testosterone .There is a چائے پتی of local shops.Will there be any harm in taking one cup of tea in a day if it is half cup of milk and half cup of water and in it we also add mint and mix jaggery(gur) .

Female | 23

Aap ek cup chai roz peenay se zyada takleef nahi hogi, lekin dhyan rakhna zaroori hai. PCOS ke sath, kuch mahilayen estrogen ya testosterone ki unchi levels se pareshan ho sakti hain, jo kabhi kabhi menstrual cycle ya skin par asar daal sakti hain. Aapki chai, jo half milk aur half water ke saath hai, mainly any significant harm nahi karegi. Mint aur jaggery daalne se bhi koi burayi nahi hai, jab tak sab kuch moderation mein ho. Halankeh, agar aapko serious symptoms milte hain, toh doctor se consult karna achha hoga. Aapka khayal rakhein!

These changes might affect mood and overall vitality. It's essential to evaluate your diet, ensure proper nutrient intake, stay hydrated, and incorporate gentle physical activity, like walking or yoga, which can elevate energy levels. Additionally, consider stress management techniques such as meditation or deep breathing exercises. Since these symptoms can also indicate underlying health issues, I encourage you to consult a general physician. They can provide a comprehensive assessment and tailored solutions to help you feel your best.

It is natural to worry about Amit. His immune system might have difficulty in fighting infections, especially type 1 diabetic patients. Fever, weakness, and abdominal pain can be symptoms of typhoid or kidney problems. They should give him light food, drink plenty of water, and check his blood sugar regularly. However, a professional checkup for these symptoms is a must. Please contact a doctor so that they can guide you to the correct diagnosis and treatment. Best wishes for a quick recovery!

medicine for decrease estrogen level in male

Male | 15

If a male's system contains excessive estrogen, it may result in problems such as tiredness, increased fat, and a change in disposition. This can occur from being overweight, some drugs, or illnesses. To reduce these levels of estrogen it is helpful to exercise regularly, have a balanced diet, and manage stress. Men should not drink alcohol if they want their estrogen level down; they also need to keep fit for this hormone balance.

Jin ka testosterone estrogen zyda ho toh kya wo zaffran ,ملٹھی ،الائچی ka khwa lay sakty?? Iss say estrogen testosterone zyda toh nai ho ga?

Female | 23

If you have higher levels of testosterone and estrogen, then you can easily use saffron, ملٹھي, and الائچي. These spices support your overall health but have no direct effect on your hormone levels. Hormonal imbalances lead to various symptoms such as mood swings, fatigue, and weight changes. Taking all this into account, it is best for you to talk to your doctor. They can understand your health better and provide proper guidance. To be keen on health is necessary, and you should never feel nervous at any time!
