The presence of anti-TPO and anti-TG antibodies suggests your immune system might be affecting your thyroid. However, as your TSH levels are normal, you may not need medication right now. Common symptoms of thyroid dysfunction include fatigue, weight changes, and mood swings, so stay mindful of how you feel. It's best to consult with your endocrinologist for personalized advice and potential monitoring. They can help determine the best approach based on your specific condition.

I am 18 year old i suffer from weight gain and full of vitamin deficiencies
Female | 18
What happens when one lacks certain nutrients is that they might feel fatigued easily, become weak, or even lose their hair among other things. One way through which this trend can be reversed would involve taking fruits and vegetables in plenty to raise vitamin levels while at the same time making sure that you don’t gain excess weight. Another method would be including foods like leafy greens; and citrus fruits within your meals

Male | 26
Your vitamin D3 level is lower than normal. Vitamin D3 deficiency can give you fatigue and weakness besides bone pain. It often happens when your body lacks exposure to sunlight or to some foods that are rich in vitamin D. For treating this condition, it is advisable to take vitamin D3 supplements that are prescribed by your doctor.

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.

Iam 43 year age and my tsh vale is 15 Which medican i use
Female | 43
The test result of TSH level 15 which is abnormally high implies that your thyroid is not functioning as well as it should. This can cause feelings of fatigue, weight increase, and feeling cold. More often it is caused by insufficient thyroid hormone production as the thyroid gland fails to produce plenty of its hormones. Consult a doctor for proper treatment plan.

A doctor has given advice jaggery water.Drink water at the time of an empty stomach in the morning , asar time and before going to sleep at night, it balances the hormone. Does it balance hormones ?? If estrogen dominance or testosterone increase ?
Female | 23
Jaggery water, consumed on an empty stomach, is thought to provide various health benefits, including potential hormonal balance. Hormonal imbalances, such as high estrogen or testosterone levels, can lead to symptoms like mood swings, weight gain, and fatigue. While jaggery contains minerals and nutrients that may support overall health, it's not a guaranteed solution for hormonal issues. Consider lifestyle changes, such as a balanced diet and regular exercise, to promote hormonal health. It's wise to consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice and to discuss any specific hormonal concerns you may have.

Male | 35
It sounds like you have high triglyceride levels. It may be related to too much consumption of saturated fat or a lack of physical activity. High triglycerides can cause heart problems, including heart attack or stroke. To lower them, you need to adopt a new lifestyle such as choosing fresh food and working out regularly. Sometimes, help from a medicine can also bring down your levels.

Male | 25
Estrogen imbalances can lead to brain fog. Brain fog makes it difficult to focus, remember things, and stay clear-headed. High estrogen levels disrupt hormonal balance, causing brain fog symptoms. If high estrogen causes your brain fog, doctors may recommend lifestyle adjustments, medications, or hormone therapy to restore balance.

You want to get fit. Being too thin can happen if your body uses up food fast or if you do not eat a lot. To gain weight, eat good stuff like fruits, veggies, grains, and protein. Do not skip meals. Eat often. As for breasts, they come in all shapes and sizes for each girl. Pills may not change them much.

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.

Weight loss may be due to different causes such as lack of proper diet, stress, or an underlying health issue. You might also have symptoms like fatigue, weakness, or changes in appetite. For this, eating a balanced diet, drinking enough water, and going to a dietitian for further evaluation and guidance are the important things to do.

The gas and breathing problems, the left-hand pain, the back joint pain, and the spinning sensations can be connected to your thyroid condition. Hypothyroidism can be the reason for these symptoms. It is good to discuss this with your physician. They might optimize your thyroid medication or suggest other treatments to make you feel better.

Androgens and Testosterone Hormones Are the Same ?? In women If androgen is high then it means testosterone will also be high ??? If androgens are controlled then testosterone will also be controlled. ??? In girls ? Mera 25 % zyda ha testosterone
Female | 23
Androgens, including testosterone, are indeed related hormones, but they are not identical. Elevated androgen levels can indicate higher testosterone levels, but not always. In women, high testosterone might lead to symptoms like irregular periods, acne, or excessive hair growth. Conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can cause this imbalance. Managing androgen levels through lifestyle changes or medical treatment can help regulate testosterone. It's advisable to consult a healthcare professional to assess your situation, get an accurate diagnosis, and explore appropriate treatment options tailored for you.

I am a 35-year-old woman with hypothyroidism and I've been experiencing weight gain. What are some effective ways to manage my weight?
Male | 35
Hypothyroidism is often linked to weight increase because of slow metabolism. To control weight, eat a balanced diet with whole grains, fruits, and lean proteins while keeping the portion sizes in check. Integrating regular physical movement such as brisk walking or strength training into your life will also contribute to higher metabolism. The most important thing is to stay hydrated and get enough sleep. Therefore, checking your thyroid hormone levels with your doctor regularly is highly recommended, as adjusting the medication may be very beneficial. During an initial consultation, a diet specialist will establish a specific food plan for you.

To improve your health, try eating a balanced diet with fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, and stay hydrated. Regular exercise can also boost your appetite and overall well-being. If these changes don't help, it's advisable to consult a doctor for proper tests and guidance.

I am a 38 year old man. In december 2023 I made a blood test and my HBA1C was 7.5%. Two months later it dropped to 6.8%. After 6 months I made another blood test and it was 6.2%. My question is: is it type 2 diabetes? Just for information, last year October and November were very stressful for me. Thanks in advance
Male | 38
Based on the information you shared, it seems that your blood sugar levels have been improving, which is a great relief! Your HbA1c falling from 7.5% to 6.2% over time is a good sign. Stress can also be a contributing factor to blood sugar levels, and thus, it could be one of the considerations. Monitor your health, eat healthy, stay active, and have regular check-ups with your doctor to monitor your blood sugar levels.
