When one loses weight abruptly, it could be a sign of a more serious health condition. One of the following conditions may be responsible for it: hyperthyroidism, diabetes, and even cancer. It is worth mentioning other manifestations like tiredness, weakness, and changes in the nourishing of the body. It is important to contact the health care provider for further investigation and proper examination.

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.

I'm a 35-year-old female with hypothyroidism. What kind of diet should I follow to manage my condition better and maintain a healthy weight?
Female | 35
Hypothyroidism refers to a condition where the thyroid gland does not produce enough of the thyroid hormone. You may gain weight easily, feel tired, and have difficulty concentrating. To combat your problem and to maintain a healthy body try to have balanced food. The best way to include them in your diet is to concentrate on whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Sweet stuff and processed foods must be out of your sight. Eating right can have a significant effect on your metabolic rate and the overall performance of your body.

Male | 27
It’s understandable to be concerned about hormonal imbalances, especially when testosterone levels are elevated. Symptoms may include mood changes, fatigue, or weight gain. High levels can result from various factors, including medications or underlying health issues. To manage this, it’s essential to discuss with an endocrinologist who may recommend lifestyle adjustments, such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and possibly adjusting your medication. Monitoring your hormone levels through regular check-ups will also be important.

i am 17 years old and im not sure if ive hit puberty. i have pubic hair but no facial or chest hair, and my penis and testicles have not grown, this is emberassing for me.
Male | 17
It's okay to be upset by the changes in your body in puberty. If there's hair down there, puberty has started. Other things like beards or chest hair might take longer to show up. It's also fine if your penis and testicles are kind of small right now - they grow at different rates for everyone.

Male | 24
Judging by your levels of Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D, it appears that they are low. Low B12 can be a reason for feeling tired and weak. Low Vitamin D can be a reason for bone pain and muscle weakness. You may need to get B12 and Vitamin D supplements. Besides, it's good to consume foods that are rich in these vitamins like fish, eggs, and dairy products.

Can I take testosterone medicine without taking doctors permission
Male | 24
Taking medication to increase your testosterone without a doctor’s consent is dangerous. Low testosterone can cause symptoms such as tiredness, decreased muscle mass and mood swings. You need to know the reason for your low levels of this hormone before you start treating it with drugs. Only a qualified medical specialist can identify and cure the root cause. Therefore, do not take any pills or injections unless they are prescribed by a professional physician.

Hi! I will be undergoing dexamethasone suppression testing and I accidentally took my pill at 10pm instead of 11pm. Can I still get my blood withdraw tomorrow at 8am? Thank you!
Female | 32
When it comes to dexamethasone suppression testing, timing is everything. If you take the pill an hour early it shouldn’t be a big deal. It's not likely to significantly alter the results of the test. You should still be able to have your blood drawn at 8 am tomorrow. Just try and follow the prescribed schedule next time for more accurate results.

Pregnancy impacts thyroid function. Thyroid hormones control metabolism and energy. Too high or low levels bring fatigue, weight changes, and mood changes. Doctors watch these levels carefully, ensuring healthy ranges. Issues prompt medication or treatments. Balanced thyroid hormones benefit mother and baby.

My vitamin b12 level is 61 what should I do my doctor has suggest injection but I don't want to take injection then he suggest flower od cap can I get my b12 requirements fullfill form this tablet
Female | 16
A large amount of B12 could induce numerous health problems such as exhaustion, susceptibility, and a tingling sensation in the hands and feet. Lack of B12 in your food and drink is the main cause. Consuming a B12 supplement such as a flower od cap can increase your levels, HOWEVER, the injections are more reliable and quicker. One good way to go about this is to have regular doctor visits so one can get enough B12 for the proper functioning of their body.

Hypothyroid and kidney stone
Female | 30
Hypothyroidism can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, and sensitivity to cold, while kidney stones may cause severe pain in the back or abdomen, blood in urine, and frequent urination. The connection between these conditions is often related to metabolic changes and dietary factors. It’s crucial to manage your thyroid levels effectively, as this can help reduce the risk of stones forming. Staying well-hydrated and following a balanced diet can also be beneficial. I encourage you to reach out to your nephrologist for personalized advice and regular monitoring to ensure optimal health.

PCOS, or Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, is a typical disease which usually combines both the menstrual cycle, acne, and weight and hormonal imbalances.

Female | 22
It’s nice to know you are regular in periods, which is a good indication. The ovarian follicles you’ve mentioned suggest a common condition that is usually found in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). This disease can initiate hormone imbalance, which might be the reason for the testosterone levels you are getting. The medicines that you have been given such as Cyproterone can be helpful in the management of symptoms and regulation of hormones. It is crucial to follow a balanced diet chart and do regular exercise as part of a healthy lifestyle. You should keep on talking with your gynecologist about your concerns so that you get the proper treatment and encouragement.

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.

Noticing a lack of vitamin D can make you feel anxious, tired, weak, and dizzy. It’s good to sunbathe for 20-30 minutes in sun rays. Keep an eye on the level of vitamin D3 in combination with Biteratecals and take advice from a doctor regularly. If you are still facing hair loss then consult a dermatologist.
