Will vitamin C, Zinc, and biotin affect Nexplanon?

Patient's Query

Hi! I have started taking a vitamin C/Zinc immune supplement for the winter. It has 270 mg of vitamin C, and 15 mg of zinc. I am also taking biotin. Does this interfere with Nexplanon?

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

The conceivable side effects of the implant include lessened bleeding, mood swings, or headaches, but those are not most often vitamins or nutritional supplements. Biotin intake, too, would not influence Nexplanon in all likelihood. Nevertheless, reactions may be different in different people. Should you have any specific concerns or feel some symptoms that are not common, it is better to see your healthcare professional.

Can we take plant protein and probiotics capsules together?

Male | 27

It is safe to take the two simultaneously - the plant protein and the probiotics capsules. Plant protein assists in the muscle-building process while probiotics ensure proper gut health. The only rare case with this combination might be slight abdominal discomfort. If you are bloated or gassy, then it would be good if you could try taking them at different times. Also, drink a lot of water with both.

Male | 25

You are facing an issue with putting on muscle mass, although you follow a good diet. It is worth mentioning that this could also be a consequence of poor digestion. Having symptoms such as a tendency to have loose stools often could be a sign of digestive problems. Seeing a doctor's advice is a must. Including more easily Digestible foods such as bananas, rice, and toast will be helpful. Besides, taking in enough water can be effective in digestion.

Tsh value -27.5 mg and Sugar leval 449 . Need diet plan and foods to regulate.

Female | 55

Your TSH leve­l is high at 27.5 mg. Sugar level's also ele­vated - 449. These numbe­rs suggest thyroid issues might exist. Uncontrolle­d blood sugar too. High TSH causes fatigue, and weight gain. Ele­vated sugars lead to exce­ssive thirst and frequent urination. Die­t changes can help regulate­ both conditions. Focus on veggies, fruits, and whole grains. Limit sugary foods and drinks. Wate­r, herbal teas are be­tter options. Regular physical activity aids manageme­nt too.

What are the supplements to take for my deficiency? What should I avoid? I am planning to go to the gym, and I would like to know about other protein sources and supplements like multivitamins. I stay in a PG hostel, so I don’t have access to much food and couldn’t manage my diet properly. I have a vitamin D3 deficiency in my blood. What should I do? Please recommend the supplements and overall health plan. How much mg should I take regularly? Please check it.

Male | 22

Take a vitamin D3 addition of 1000-2000 IU daily to rectify your deficiency, but you should not miss a consultation with a healthcare professional for the personalized recommendation. If you can manage a diet of limited food, try to eat more protein sources such as eggs, yogurt, and legumes. Apart from that multivitamins can also help to bridge the nutrition gap. It is suggested to remain active during the day and catch some sun too which would support the increment of vitamin D. Cut down on both caffeine and junk food. Your health expert will, without a doubt, be the right person to turn to if you are feeling tired or have muscle weakness and you are always urged to consult a doctor. You are the main focus in the healthcare system and you are not the only one who needs care.

Hi, I've been experiencing frequent headaches and someone suggested it might be related to my diet. Are there certain foods that could be triggering my headaches?

Female | 27

There is no doubt that the food can be the trigger of headaches. Some usual suspects are processed meats, aged cheeses, beer, and foods with monosodium glutamate (MSG). These substances may have adverse effects on the blood vessels in the brain, which eventually lead to headaches. If you start to experience a headache you can add it to the diary. Once you identify a particular food item, you might want to eliminate it from your diet to see if the headaches get better.
