Why are my LH:FSH ratio, prolactin, sugar, TSH, RBC abnormal?

I am 26yr old female, I have got blood test done where my LH: FsH ratio came 3.02, my prolactin came 66.5, my sugar was 597 at fasting, my TSH is 4.366 and my RBC count is 5.15.

Based on the results from your blood tests, there are some things we should investigate. High levels of prolactin can be caused by stress, certain medications, or a problem with the pituitary gland in the brain. With a fasting sugar level of 597, you may have diabetes. A TSH level of 4.366 could indicate a problem with your thyroid gland. You should see a doctor and get checked out further for treatment options.

Your thyroid test came back showing a level of 14.1, which means that your thyroid is a little high. There are several possible causes, such as inflammation or certain medications.

Yes, hormonal imbalances can sometimes trigger vertigo. Low blood pressure and migraines can also contribute to this condition. It’s good that you consulted a gynecologist for your hormonal issues. Additionally, you should visit a neurologist for your vertigo and migraine concerns, as they can provide specialized care for these conditions.

Can I get blood drawn after wrong dexamethasone time?

Hi! I will be undergoing dexamethasone suppression testing and I accidentally took my pill at 10pm instead of 11pm. Can I still get my blood withdraw tomorrow at 8am? Thank you!

Dr. Babita Goel

Dr. Babita Goel

General Physician

Answered on 7th June '24

When it comes to dexamethasone suppression testing, timing is everything. If you take the pill an hour early it shouldn’t be a big deal. It's not likely to significantly alter the results of the test. You should still be able to have your blood drawn at 8 am tomorrow. Just try and follow the prescribed schedule next time for more accurate results.

What dose medicine should I take for TSH 3.6?

I am 36 years old. I have TSH level of 3.6 microIU/mL. What should be the dose of my medicine. Currently I was prescribed with 50mcg.

Dr. Babita Goel

Dr. Babita Goel

General Physician

Answered on 7th June '24

If your TSH level tests positive with a figure of 3.6 microIU/mL, this is within limits but slightly on the higher side. Higher than normal TSH levels often come with symptoms like fatigue, unexplained weight gain, and feeling cold when others are warm. In case you are experiencing any of these symptoms, alongside the fact that 50mcg is your current dose, it means that you may need to adjust it depending on what your body demands. You must always consult your doctor when there is a need to do so.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Dr. Babita Goel

Answered on 6th June '24

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.

General Physician

Answered on 4th June '24

Taking medication to increase your testosterone without a doctor’s consent is dangerous. Low testosterone can cause symptoms such as tiredness, decreased muscle mass and mood swings. You need to know the reason for your low levels of this hormone before you start treating it with drugs. Only a qualified medical specialist can identify and cure the root cause. Therefore, do not take any pills or injections unless they are prescribed by a professional physician.

Answered on 4th June '24

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

This is when you eat too few calories for a long period, and suddenly eat a lot; it can be dangerous. Some symptoms include heart problems, difficulty breathing, and weakness. Be sure to start slowly with food again and increase your calorie intake gradually over days or even weeks. Getting checked out by medical professionals would help too so that there won’t be any complications.

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.
