It seems to me that you have developed herpes zoster infection, but a dermatologist would judge better, so refer this page to find doctors - Dermatologists in India. If you find your diabetes interfering with or complicating your conditions then you can contact me anytime as well.

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.

Female | 19
Hormonal imbalances with hyperthyroidism can alter your cycle. This may lead to light, scanty menstruation. The good news is that when you return home, it becomes normal again but changes after some time. For you, adjusting medications could be useful in balancing hormones as well as enhancing flow during menses. Have a talk with your doctor about this.

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.

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.

Age:- 48 yrs Male, Got tested HbA1c n reported as>10% , & Mean blood glucose level is 263.3 mg/ dl.
Male | 48
It looks like the blood sugar level of this 48-year-old person is extremely high. If the HbA1c is over 10% and the average blood glucose level is 263.3 mg/dL, it means the diabetes is not well controlled. Common symptoms include frequent urination, thirst, weight loss, and tiredness. This could be due to not taking medications properly or not following a healthy diet. To manage this, eat a balanced diet, take their medicines as prescribed, and exercise regularly.

My mother is suffering from thyroid ,she had a mild stroke before some days now she is in bed .A physiotherapy is done every day at home.but she is very weak.we have done her thyroid test this is here T3-111.5 T4-9.02 TSH-7.110. Please let me know the exact power of her medicine.
Female | 68
It appears to me that she suffers from hypothyroidism because of a lack of energy amongst other symptoms. A high TSH means that the thyroid is not producing enough hormones. Possibly, she may have to adjust the dosage of her thyroid medication to correspond with these levels. Please ensure that she adheres to taking her drugs regularly as well as continuing physiotherapy for all-round healing.

Planing to take multivitamin tablet before going to sleep, every night. Is there any risky side effects? And if there is no risk Can i know how much dosage should i take as a 16 year old, 49kg boy.
Male | 16
Many people think about their health, like taking a multivitamin. Having it before sleep is usually ok. But, you can't take too much. A 16-year-old boy weighing 49kg should follow the dosage instructions carefully. Overdoing certain vitamins may cause issues. For example, an upset stomach or headaches. If you notice anything unusual after taking the multivitamin, like stomach pain or rashes, stop right away. Talk to a doctor.

Female | 26
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.

Female | 23
You are suffering from PCOD which is responsible for weight gain, face acne, and excess facial hair growing from your face and additional regions on your body. PCOD is a hormonal imbalance that can cause these symptoms. Consuming a well-planned meal, doing physical activity regularly, and dealing with stress properly are also ways to eliminate the problem. Consult a doctor for further opinion.

I noticed unexpected weight loss of my body during last few months. Report tell us that haemoglobin is some sort in the body and ECG report suggests that everything is normal. One more concern is that in night, don't sleep comes..??
Male | 52
Excessive weight loss and too little sleep are some reasons that could be due to worry, an unhealthy diet, or maybe some other ailments such as hyperthyroidism. It is great to hear that your hemoglobin is within limits and your ECG is normal, yet it is probably useful to chat with your doctor to get an idea about what your dearth of sleep stems from. Don't forget to tell your doctor about all your symptoms and worries, so they can help you understand the best solution to your problem.

Your test results show elevated levels in liver enzymes (AST, ALT, Gamma GT), which may indicate liver stress or damage. The higher MPV and kidney function markers also need attention. Visit a hepatologist for liver concerns and a nephrologist for kidney health to get a clear diagnosis and treatment plan. It’s important to follow their advice for further tests or treatments.

Female | 23
Experiencing a fast heartbeat after eating and weight loss with normal thyroid levels could be due to several reasons, such as low blood sugar, anemia, or other metabolic conditions. It's essential to consult a cardiologist or an endocrinologist to get a proper diagnosis and treatment. Always seek professional medical advice for your symptoms.

Female | 24
A prolonged white discharge accompanied by severe fatigue can be concerning. High TSH levels may indicate that your thyroid isn't functioning properly, which could be causing these symptoms. Hormonal imbalances can lead to such symptoms and unusual discharge. It's important to discuss these results with an endocrinologist for a thorough examination and appropriate treatment.

Now doctor gave me thyronorm 50, but still after a week my condition is the same, my heartbeat stays normal as long as i lie down even when i lie down sometimes it rises up... My 2d echo, usg is normal...
Female | 22
A test result of TSH at a high level signifies that the thyroid could be malfunctioning. This can be caused by rapid heart rates, weight loss, and bloating. The medicine is the cause for the improvement, but the improvement may take a while to show. Often, determining the correct dosage requires some experimentation. Do not forget to tell your doctor about any changes or improvements in your health.

I had GYM without diet and hydration (only one or two water of glass in a day) for 3 months about a year ago and after one month during GYM I had started to face problems like too much stress, Low energy, Chest fat (not gynecomastia), Sleep disturbance, More feminine appearance in my face then I tested my Harmones my testosterone is high by 143 as it's normal range and my estradiol is in normal range. I have high Estrogen symptoms but my estradiol report is normal. This is my problem.
Male | 22
The signs you mentioned can be difficult indeed. Although your estradiol levels are normal, hormonal dysfunction can, however, still be the case. Other factors may also play a role in reduced testosterone levels causing increased symptoms. High-intensity workouts without proper nutrition or hydration can lead to the disturbance of hormone balance. Regarding your problem, focus on a balanced diet, hydration, and suitable physical activity. Besides, this you should also consult an endocrinologist.
