Answered on 14th Feb '25
The code F31.9 relates to a condition known as bipolar disorder, unspecified. This means you might experience significant mood fluctuations, including episodes of depression or mania without detailed specifics. Causes can vary widely, including genetics, brain chemistry, and environmental factors. Managing this condition often involves therapy, lifestyle changes, and possibly medication to stabilize mood. It’s essential to maintain a supportive network and engage in regular self-care practices. I encourage you to discuss with endocrinologist for personalized advice and comprehensive support tailored to your needs.

Weight gain nhi hota bhukh v nhi lggti
Male | 25
Not feeling hungry impacts weight gain. Many causes exist: stress, bad eating habits, medical problems. Insufficient food impairs growth. Try small, frequent meals, nutritious foods, less stress. Continuing issues warrant doctor consultation to determine root factors.

I am 21 years old, my weight is only 34 kg and I have also done all the tests, there is no such symptom came in reports , I want to increase my weight and breast increase, so please suggest me medicine.
Female | 21
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.

Difference between thyroxin sodium tablets and levothyroxine sodium tablets. Are both the same medicine?
Male | 22
Thyroxin sodium and levothyroxine sodium are essentially the same medicine, used to treat hypothyroidism (low thyroid hormone levels). Symptoms of hypothyroidism include fatigue, weight gain, and feeling cold. These tablets help balance hormone levels and relieve symptoms, improving how you feel.

I have brain fog and I think it is hormonal because my I have gynecosmastia and my estrogen is high any help to treat the brain fog
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.

Suddenly I found my sugar level is 33 I feel very bad.. What should I do now. Its urgent
Male | 32
A sugar level of 33 is dangerously low. Symptoms like shakiness, dizziness, sweatiness, and confusion occur. This happens when insulin dosages are high or food intake is insufficient. The immediate fix is consuming sugary items like juice, soda, or candy. These quickly raise blood sugar levels. After that, eat protein-rich snacks to stabilize it. Discussing this episode with your doctor is crucial.

This could indicate unstable blood sugar levels. However, it might also signify other health issues like thyroid dysfunction or infections. It would be wise to consult an endocrinologist as soon as possible. They can investigate the root cause and provide suitable treatment.

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.

Today his blood test come and his fasting blood sugar came 171 plz tell me what to do now
Male | 45
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.

Sir my c-peptide test results 7.69 And my hb1c 5.2 Feeling empty stomach and weekness and low suger I am non diabetic
Male | 45
Based on the symptoms and test results, it appears that your body might not be producing enough insulin. This is known to cause low sugar, weakness, and hunger. Even if you’re not diabetic, such problems could be related to insulin. Attempt taking small frequent meals high in protein and fiber. Seek further assessment and advice from a doctor if these symptoms persist.

I am 47 years old male.I am loosing my weight constantly since February I was 63 in weight but now I am only 58 in weight
Male | 47
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.

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.

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.

My hb1ac sugar level is 9.1 but I have no symptoms is report is wrong
Male | 43
A hbA1c sugar level of 9.1 means that your blood sugar has been high for some time. Even if you do not feel it, high levels can damage your body. Symptoms may not appear immediately. This should be taken seriously. Eating well, exercising, and perhaps medicine may help lower your blood sugar.

I m 45 yrs old.and I have thyroid. My TSH level is 7.110. my dosage of throxine 75 mcg.now please tell me about the dosage.
Female | Shalini Bal
A TSH level of 7.110 indicates that your thyroid hormone is not functioning properly even though you are taking 75 micrograms of thyroxine. The fact that you have a high level of TSH indicates that your thyroid gland is not producing enough thyroid hormones. Signs of this include a feeling of drowsiness, excess weight, and getting cold. An increased dose of thyroxine could be considered to stabilize your thyroid and, in turn, your TSH level back to the normal range. Substantive discussions with your doctor should be conducted to examine the findings and to agree on the appropriate path to follow.

Female | 39
An elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone may indicate an underactive thyroid, which can lead to fatigue or weight gain. The elevated blood sugar level points towards potential insulin resistance, often linked to lifestyle factors like diet and exercise. The mildly high hemoglobin A1c indicates you're in the prediabetes range. I recommend focusing on a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, alongside regular physical activity. It’s also important to consult a healthcare professional for an in-depth evaluation and tailored advice. They can provide the best guidance moving forward.

Need advice related to diabetic health issues
Male | 30
People suffering from diabetes have blood sugar levels that are too high. Knowledge about diabetes can cause people to think that this is a disease of the elderly only but the facts show that it is not that way. They can experience symptoms like excessive thirst, reiterating the need for the bathroom, unwilling weight reduction, and constant fatigue. It is caused when your body either is not producing enough insulin or cannot use it. Get used to eating healthy, exercising, taking medicine if needed, and checking blood sugar levels.

Male | 38
You should discuss any insulin regimen changes with a doctor before you do anything. Both Fiasp and Novarapid are rapid-acting insulins to be used to treat diabetes by controlling blood sugar levels. It is recommended to follow only the insulin given by the doctor to avoid any complications.

hi im thinking about taking boron at 9mg per day to raise free testosterone, i found a brand that has 3mg per tablet and has 25mg of b2, would taking 3 of these per day be safe?
Male | 30
Consuming 9mg of boron per day may be harmful, particularly if you are thinking about consuming 3 tablets with 3mg of boron in each. The upper limit of boron overdose is manifested in symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Get in touch with a endocrinologist before starting any new supplements to make sure of their safety and efficacy.
