Answered on 15th June '24
Feeling sleepy during the day could be because of your diabetes medicine. Sometimes diabetes medicines can make you sleepy. Also, having diabetes, cholesterol, and thyroid issues all together can make you feel tired. Make sure you're eating well, getting enough sleep, and moving around during the day. If it keeps bothering you, talk to your healthcare provider to see if they can adjust your medicine or suggest other options.

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.

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.

I accidentally took 2.5 instead of .25 semiglutide. What should I do.
Female | 51
The semaglutide you took too much of may cause stomach discomfort, diarrhea, or increased sweating. The risk of receiving too much is the probability of being unable to lower your blood sugar levels. You should drink water and eat a sweet thing like a piece of candy or juice. Don't worry; if you feel discomfort, you may seek the advice of a medical professional immediately. Please take care!

I think I have thyroid or PCOS i feel too much nervous, I have anxiety, I'm depressed, I loose so much hair also , feel so much fatigue, even after 8 or more hours of sleep I feel tired, I am always overwhelmed and cry at small things
Female | 18
It seems you may have symptoms of thyroid problems or PCOS. Both can make you feel stressed, sad, lose hair, tired, and overwhelmed. Thyroid issues happen when the thyroid does not work right and impacts hormones. PCOS affects female hormones and may cause similar signs. You should see a doctor to get tests done and proper care. They can help figure out what is causing these feelings.

Hello , I am 27 years old and i have testosterone value 2.89 ng/mL . And i make exercises fitness 3/4 days in week My question is : Can i take some testosterone ?
Male | 27
At your age, having a level of testosterone at 2.89ng/mL is right where it should be. There are several symptoms associated with lowT which include high fatigue levels, decreased libido, and even mood swings. It might be stress or some medical problems causing it; see a doctor before taking testosterone because if not done properly this could harm your body. If you sustain your exercise routine, eat well-balanced meals daily, and have adequate sleep every night -these activities will help maintain normal levels of this hormone.

Female | 29
A Vitamin D level of 5 is quite low. It can lead to symptoms like tiredness, muscle weakness, bone pain, and getting sick often. This can happen because your body needs Vitamin D to stay strong and healthy. You can increase your Vitamin D level by spending time in the sun, taking supplements, and eating foods like fish and eggs that contain Vitamin D.

In pregnancy, a TSH reading at 8.5 indicates suboptimal thyroid performance. Potential manifestations encompass fatigue, increased weight, and lowered body temperature. Furthermore, implications for the fetus may arise. To rectify this issue, physicians often prescribe medication to normalize hormone levels.

thing..my daughter is 13 yrs old n 165 cms tall..she had her first period 2.4 years back.father height 5.8 inch n mother height 5.1 inch..can she get few more inches.or she has got adult height...pls suggest
Female | 13
A 13-year-old may still have some growing to do. The growth spurt during puberty is different for everyone. Most girls stop growing taller between 14 and 16 years old. However, it is true that a few factors that can affect a person's height are genetics and nutrition. Environmental factors (nutrition) and genetic endowments are the ways to ensure her growth. If you want her to grow, make sure she's getting a sufficient diet and moving a lot.

SUGAR LEVEL 230 AFTER EATING AND 112/79 (109 PULSE) (PULSE SOMETIMES GO 77 AND SOMETIMES 110+) WHAT CAN I DO TO TO CONTROL SUGAR AND BP LIKE A NORMAL PERSON
Male | 59
A blood sugar level of 230 after eating is too high, and fluctuating blood pressure isn't good. This may indicate uncontrolled diabetes, which can cause dizziness or chest pain. To manage it, eat balanced meals, exercise regularly, and reduce salt, sugar, and stress. Drink more water, cut down on caffeine, and ensure you get good sleep. If your readings remain high, see a doctor. Maintaining balanced meals, regular exercise, less salt and sugar, and managing stress, along with staying hydrated and getting enough sleep, are crucial.

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.

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.

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.

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.
