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.

sir muje calcium ki kami hai

Male | 25

If you feel tired, your muscles are cramping, or you are suffering from weakness, it may be due to the low calcium levels. If there is a consumption of fewer products from the group of “calcium-rich food” that includes if you prefer dairy products, it can cause calcium levels in your blood to fall. To get over it, it is better to introduce more milk, cheese, yogurt, or leafy greens into your daily menu.

I have hyperthyroidism and my tsh value is at 15.i want medicine recommendation for it

Female | 21

Hyperthyroidism is when the thyroid gland makes too much thyroid hormone. It can cause symptoms such as weight loss, sweating, and feeling nervous. A TSH value of 15 is considered high, which indicates an underactive thyroid. Levothyroxine could be prescribed to correct this by balancing out your levels of thyroid hormones. Be sure to follow your doctor’s advice.

I HV been diagnosed with thyroid level 4.84 and TB gold as >10 infection.what does it mean

Female | 38

Your thyroid is 4.84, it is slightly elevated which shows that there may be an issue with your thyroid. Moreover, TB Gold >10 suggests a possible infection of tuberculosis. These signs may differ, for instance, fatigue, weight gain or loss as well as coughing up blood could all indicate this disease. The cause is either malfunctioning glands in the neck region or exposure to TB bacteria through inhalation into one’s lungs. Therapy involves drugs that normalize hormone production by these organs and anti-TB medications if necessary.

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.

I am 16 year old boy. But doesn't have any facial hair . I am eating speman tablet Himalayas. Is it good...or will work ?

Male | 16

It's normal to be concerned about facial hair during teenage years; everybody grows differently. Our body directly uses the supplements for reproductive health so we can consider them as a part of our diet. Insufficient facial hair is because of genetic factors or it may also be due to low hormones. Talking to a doctor could be the best way to know more about the situation and get some help or advice.

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.
