Answered on 26th Sept '24
The fasting level of 171 is too high for normal blood sugar. It can point to diabetes. Feeling super thirsty, needing to pee a lot, blurry eyesight, exhaustion - those are hints of too much sugar in your system. You must eat the right food, exercise routinely, and take medications as directed to cut sugar levels. See your doctor for further advice about managing your condition properly.

Not gaining weight. My age is 19 nd weight is 28 .
Female | 19
People your age should gain weight bit by bit. Perhaps you are not eating enough or have thyroid issues among other things which commonly lead to a lack of weight gain. Have balanced diet meals that are inclusive of proteins, carbohydrates, and healthy fats. To rule out any health complications, go for regular checkups with a physician.

I am 47 year old woman, I have diabetes since last 6,7 years, sugar level is mostly more than 200. And vitamin B12 and vitamin D is very less. Please suggest medicines.
Female | 47
It's better to visit a specialist in person, as for diagnosis it will be essential to go through the latest blood reports and logbook readings, and additionally your details regarding current prescription is required as well. But I will advise you to take Multivitamin B12 like Nervmax and Uprise D3 for few months. Refer this page to find doctors - Diabetologists in Ghaziabad, or let the clinicspots team know if your location is different, or else I can be contacted too.

Male | 20
Putting on weight can feel hard. Your body may burn food very fast. Or you may not eat enough. Health issues could also cause this. You may feel tired or weak. Or you may not want to eat much. To gain pounds, eat foods with lots of calories. Good choices are nuts, avocados, chicken, and fish. These foods give your energy. Exercise to build muscle too. If your weight stays low, see a doctor. They can check for any problems.

Prolactin levels are high and I'm taking cabgolin but facing side effects
Female | 37
Increased prolactin amounts can happen sometimes, and taking cabgolin is right for that. This medicine can bring about side-effects like nausea, dizziness, headaches. Elevated prolactin might make periods irregular or milk production start. To minimize discomfort, consume cabgolin after meals. If problems persist, talk to your doctor.

I was wondering if having sugar levels at 109 is high or low
Female | 17
Having sugar levels at 109 is neither too high nor too low. This is normal. You may not have any symptoms at this level. 109 is a healthy range, but it’s good to keep an eye on it. Eating healthy foods and doing exercise regularly can help you to maintain this level. If your sugar levels go too high or too low, you might feel tired, thirsty, or shaky.

My vitamin d3 test results are 6.4 respectively ,what is the medixation or injection that i should take to improve my d3
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.

Iam 24 years old female i have white discharge from last 6 months i have thyroid and pcod iam having severe weakness from last 3 months i have consulted doctor they have tested hemoglobin, vitamins, magnesium, ultrasound, diabetes all the test or normal for white discharge they have given tablets after taking tablets white discharge not reducing if I ask doctors white discharge is normal.for women don't get scare like that but weakness is not reducing but TSH is 44
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.

medicine for decrease estrogen level in male
Male | 15
If a male's system contains excessive estrogen, it may result in problems such as tiredness, increased fat, and a change in disposition. This can occur from being overweight, some drugs, or illnesses. To reduce these levels of estrogen it is helpful to exercise regularly, have a balanced diet, and manage stress. Men should not drink alcohol if they want their estrogen level down; they also need to keep fit for this hormone balance.

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.

Untreated diabetes weight loss medication and urine smells like sewer
Female | 44
If you do not take care of diabetes, you may lose weight. Your pee might also smell bad. This happens when your body cannot use sugar right. It starts using fat and muscle for energy instead. This causes weight loss. To fix this, you must control your diabetes. Eat healthy foods, exercise, and take medicine as told. This will help keep your blood sugar levels normal.

Male | 40
Anemia is the condition when your blood does not have enough healthy red blood cells. It can be caused by iron deficiency, vitamin deficiency, or chronic diseases. The management of anemia can help to enhance your health. Diabetes and heart conditions are the main reasons for infertility, however, if the condition is managed properly and an infertility specialist is consulted, having children is still possible.

Increased risk for diabetes (prediabetes): 5.7-6.4% Diabetes: > or =6.5% When using Hemoglobin A1c to diagnose diabetes, an elevated Hemoglobin A1c should be confirmed with a repeat measurement, fasting glucose, or other test for diagnosing diabetes. All hemoglobin A1c methods are affected by conditions that increase or decrease red blood cell survival. Falsely high results may be seen with iron deficiency or splenectomy. Falsely normal or low results may be seen with hemolytic anemias, unstable hemoglobins, end-stage renal disease, recent or chronic blood loss, or following transfusions. Hemoglobin A1C View trends Normal range: 4.0 - 5.6 % 4 5.6 4.6 Estimated Average Glucose View trends mg/dL Value 85
Female | 27
If you have a Hemoglobin A1c level of 5.7-6.4%, you are at risk for diabetes. If your level is 6.5% or higher, it means that you have diabetes. Signs of this condition include thirstiness, frequent urination, weariness, or unclear eyesight at times. Overeating, genetics combined with little or no physical activity could be the cause behind it all or some of these symptoms coming up. Controlling your blood sugar requires eating well-balanced meals regularly and exercising often if not daily; medication may also be necessary depending on other factors such as age, sex, race, etc.

Phentermine is a medication that aids in weight loss by decreasing the feeling of hunger. Alongside progesterone, phentermine may be lessened in power. You should discuss them with your doctor before taking both at the same time. They can offer you good advice on the impacts of each other and your period.

Hi I m on thyroid tablets of 125mcg eltroxin My current tsh is 0.012, t3 - 1.05, t4 - 11.5 Should I reduce the dosage to normalise
Female | 32
Based on the thyroid test results, you have slightly low thyroid levels as your TSH is 0.012. Your present dosage of eltroxin may be too high for you; this could be the case. Besides, these might be the possible reasons: you will feel jittery, lose weight, and have trouble sleeping. To correct the dosage, consult your doctor and suggest doing the treatment at the lower dosage to get your thyroid levels back in balance.
