I have hypothyroid..Can i consume moringa tea and fish collagen supplement?
Female | 41
Hypothyroidism is when your thyroid gland doesn't produce enough hormones. Common signs are tiredness, weight gain, and feeling cold. Both moringa tea and fish collagen supplements are typically safe. However, consult with your healthcare provider to ensure they don't interfere with your thyroid medication. Managing your condition involves a balanced diet, taking medication as prescribed, and regular check-ups.

im 23. im a female. i took 1mg ozempic as a first dose and im not a diabetic, just for weight loss. since then ive been experiencing side effects like nausea, vomitted twice, heaviness in my stomach area, palpitations, slight difficulty breathing.
Female | 23
You might have an unwanted health reaction after consuming Ozempic despite not being diabetic. The medication can cause nausea, vomiting, the feeling of heaviness in the stomach, palpitations, and shortness of breath because of its impact on your body. Abstain from it instantly and visit a doctor. Your health will be restored as soon as the medicine clears your system.

Your excessive sleep and tiredness could be related to your thyroid issue affecting energy levels and overall health. The ear itching, leg pain, and hand pain may also need further evaluation. Visit an endocrinologist for your thyroid condition and a neurologist to check if there are any nerve-related issues. A proper diagnosis will help you get the right treatment to improve your symptoms.

I am 24 years old I have thyroid symptoms
Female | 24
This is a gland in the neck that can cause tiredness, weight gain, and loss, or feelings of anxiety and depression. When too much or too little hormone is produced by this organ these symptoms may arise. To confirm the diagnosis, go for some blood tests at the doctor’s office. If there is an issue, don’t worry – there are treatments available that will help to balance the levels of thyroid hormones within your body.

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.

I am a 26 year old. Following are my thyroid results TSH- 1.4252 microlU/mL T3(total)- 1.47 ng/ul T4(total)- 121.60 nmol/l Are the results normal? Also, I am developing white hair in scalp and beard
Male | 26
A normal TSH level is good for thyroid health, like yours. Likewise, normal T3 and T4 levels indicate everything's fine. White hair on your scalp and beard can result from genetics, stress, or nutritional deficiencies. To address it, try maintaining a balanced diet, managing stress effectively, and using gentle hair care products.

Hormone imbalance could be the issue you have. Hormones act as the messengers in our bodies, and if they are not in balance, it can result in all the symptoms you are experiencing. Ask for an appointment with the endocrinologist. These professionals are interested in hormones and can assist with finding out the problem. They may recommend tests, medications, or behavioral changes to facilitate your improvement.

Few weeks later i had started experiencing nocturnal diabetes ... The thing i am unable to wake up in the morning ... My roommates used to wake me up by use of honey and sugary items.. this thing scares me alot ...please help me out ...Thank you
Female | 19
Night hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar in the evening, is complex. Being unable to wake up due to this is alarming. It happens when your sugar dips during sleep. You might need to alter your insulin doses or timing under medical supervision. Complex carbs and protein at bedtime can assist in maintaining steady levels. Monitor your readings carefully. Discuss any worries with your doctor.

Sorry for my english I am 23 years old. For 7 years, I have been suffering from weakness in the bones of the face and lower jaw constantly from the slightest pressure on them. I had vitamin D test and my value is 5.5 very low, and my calcium is 9.7. The doctor told me to take vitamin D 10,000 IU per day for 3 months. Should I eat a lot of foods that contain calcium or not, and how much calcium per day for the 10,000 iu? Because when I take vitamin D supplements, I feel an itching sensation in the lower jaw, as if it is weakening more. The question is Should I increase calcium foods or make it less because i feel it's getting more weak, or what should I do to avoid bone erosion? And i'm afraid if calcium will be more than normal when i eat more calcium food because it's 9.7 now thanks.
Female | 23
Judging from what you said, you are having a problem with low vitamin D levels, which can result in the weakening of the bones. Taking 10,000 IU per day as your doctor suggested is good, but you should also eat foods that are rich in calcium. Do not forget to take around 1,000 to 1,200 mg of calcium daily. Consider adding milk, yogurt, cheese, and leafy greens to your diet. Talk to your doctor if you feel more weakness in your jaw or experience itching to adjust your supplements.

I got stuck in decreasing calories and now i don't know how much can i start to eat to avoid refeeding syndrome. I am 20-years old male 185cm/43kg
Male | 20
This is when you eat too few calories for a long period, and suddenly eat a lot; it can be dangerous. Some symptoms include heart problems, difficulty breathing, and weakness. Be sure to start slowly with food again and increase your calorie intake gradually over days or even weeks. Getting checked out by medical professionals would help too so that there won’t be any complications.

Male | 75
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.

Female | 26
People with hypothyroidism may worry about taking PCOS supplements. They could impact acne, hair loss, weight gain, plus pregnancy plans. These supplements change hormone levels. That affects thyroid issues too. Always check with a gynecologist first. Get tailored treatment for your needs. Make sure it's pregnancy-safe.

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.

Male | Sohit Pandey
High thyroid levels on some occasions are associated with heart palpitations. Your thyroid dosage should probably be changed to assist in this. Fluttering or racing of your heart is what you may be feeling due to palpitations. Consult an endocrinologist for advice, which will help you to make adjustments in your medications to normalize your thyroid levels.

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.

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.
