Can you explain hypothyroidism?

I m a 23 year old girl i have hypothyroidism and i want to know about it

Answered on 5th July '24

Hypothyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland produces too few thyroid hormones. The symptoms of this may include experiencing fatigue, gaining weight for no purpose, having dry skin, and feeling constantly cold. This can occur because of an infection, an autoimmune disease, or even after pregnancy. Typically, medications are recommended to help control thyroid hormones to re-balance the levels.

Hypoglycemia occurs when blood sugar levels fall below normal, which can cause symptoms like trembling, sweating, hunger, or dizziness. This often happens due to missing meals or not eating enough. To prevent hypoglycemia, aim to eat regular, balanced meals and snacks throughout the day. If you have concerns, consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis and advice.

It’s normal for their cholesterol levels to go up. Moreover, the thyroid medication you are on may be a contributing factor. Keep track of your cholesterol since it can sometimes be risky. Ensure you eat well and stay physically fit too. You should see a doctor about any worries you might have.

Before I share my worries I have to always note that I am a childhood cancer survivor Osteosarcoma I am now 19 and I was diagnosed at 11, I have been free from cancer since 13 years old I have worries of having cushin disease, I show all the symptoms and researched on YouTube by various videos of different doctors speaking of the subject. I gained a lot of weight in such a rapid speed even though I was very skinny, no matter how heathy I eat eating enough protein, cutting gluten and diary out as well as sugar I feel like i keep gaining weight. I have a fat pad at the back of my neck and the fat seems to go to my back and stomach, have awful bruising on my feet sometimes, horrible exhaustion by just lifting my arms and my bones sound like they crack a lot. Alongside many other symptoms like insulin resistance a doctor noticed due to darkening to my neck, but diabetes was ruled out when I went to a doctor and she said she did see many signs of a hormonal issue just by looking at me, referred me to a endocrinologist. I suspected high cortisol because i have dealt with a history of psychological issues such as diagnosed depression. I am suffering and will see this specialist soon, but my general blood lab tests have been “normal” before, I have read out of fear of not being heard by my doctor that lab tests sometimes do not show abnormal cortisol levels if the cortisol is not or condition of it is not too advanced I want to know all the tests that I need done that are necessary to be diagnosed, and what alternatives can I discuss with my doctors if the labs come out “normal” I am aware i need to advocate for myself sometimes I just dont know how to word it because of fear of seeming ignorant and like i know more than my doctor, I dont think this I just want my pain to be over! I think hearing advice from a professional would be best on how i can best approach advocation for my health.

The symptoms you're experiencing could be related to Cushing's disease. It's important to discuss the necessary tests with your doctor to get an accurate diagnosis. These tests include a cortisol urine test, blood cortisol levels, and an MRI to check your pituitary gland. Cortisol levels can fluctuate, so multiple tests at different times may be needed for a definitive diagnosis. Even if initial tests are normal but your doctor suspects Cushing's disease based on your symptoms, further testing and monitoring might be required. Be open and honest with your doctors, ask questions, and express your concerns to ensure you receive the best care.

Mera tsh level 8.94 hai to plz bataye ki mai 25 mcg tablet lo

Female | 26

When TSH is 8.94, the­ thyroid doesn't function correctly. You might fee­l be exhausted, gain extra weight or e­xperience chilly se­nsations. This happens because of re­asons that affect the thyroid gland's performance­. A 25 mcg tablet may assist, but consulting a doctor before starting any me­dication is wise.

It’s good that you’re paying attention to the changes in your body. Sudden weight loss can sometimes be linked to conditions like diabetes, thyroid issues, or other underlying health problems. Visit an endocrinologist to check for diabetes and thyroid problems. The doctor may suggest tests like blood sugar levels and thyroid function tests to identify the issue.

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.

My Thyroid TSH level is 36.80 I want to confirm the medicine and dosage

Female | 31

A TSH level of 36.80 indicates that your thyroid might be malfunctioning. Among its signs and symptoms are getting tired, gaining weight, and always being cold. The so-called hypothyroidism can also be one of the reasons why. Commonly, doctors tend to prescribe drugs based on thyroid hormones such as levothyroxine. The dosage should be calculated by your doctor for your specific needs.

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.

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.

Is sugar level 106.24 H is valid for medical test ?

Male | 22

The term "106.24 H" is not a standard unit of measurement for blood sugar levels. Blood sugar levels are typically measured in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) or millimoles per liter (mmol/L).

If the value you mentioned, 106.24 H, is in mg/dL or mmol/L, it would be helpful to know the reference range or normal range provided by the specific laboratory or healthcare institution conducting the test.

Male | 30

Having a sugar level of 444 is dangerous as it is extremely high. It may make you feel thirsty, and tired, and go to the bathroom too frequently. High sugar levels generally occur in diabetics.
