Questions & Answers on "Thyroid Swelling" (60)
Hello Doctor My name is Ashiya, and I have been dealing with subclinical hypothyroidism since I was 6 years old. It all started when I suddenly became very thin during my first grade. Concerned, my parents took me to a doctor who was already treating my mother for her subclinical hypothyroidism. After some blood work, the results showed elevated TSH levels at 10.5, while my T4 and T3 levels were normal. The doctor diagnosed me with hypothyroidism and prescribed thyroxine. Now, at 17, I want to understand more about hypothyroidism. Despite reading numerous articles and watching videos, I'm still unclear about the root causes of my subclinical hypothyroidism. I even don't have Hashimoto's thyroiditis. I've learned that deficiencies in selenium, zinc, copper, magnesium, and vitamin D can lead to subclinical hypothyroidism. My primary concern is whether this condition is permanent. I'm hesitant about taking a tablet every morning for the rest of my life . I would greatly appreciate your time to delve deeper into this condition.There's much to discuss, especially since my sister's TSH levels have recently elevated. We consulted a gynecologist [because my sister was not having her periods and the doctor got her thyroid test and found her TSH levels got elavated] and prescribed her 25 mcg of thyroxine, which I believe was inappropriate as her TSH levels were only at 9. Additionally, the doctor didn't test for antibodies. After 15 days of taking the tablets, my sister experienced throat pain and muscle pains. Now, her recent thyroid test showed a decrease to 8 without any thyroxine. We went to another doctor, who performed a TPO test and discovered that my sister does not have any antibodies. She's now focusing on her diet, incorporating brazil nuts for selenium, brown rice, and other foods rich in zinc, magnesium, and copper, as well as getting adequate sunlight for vitamin D. I'm hopeful that with your guidance, we can normalize her TSH levels and mine too without the need for lifelong medication. Could you please provide me with more information about this condition? Thank you. Sincerely, Ashiya.

Subclinical hypothyroidism can have different causes and may not always be permanent. Addressing nutrient deficiencies and other underlying issues can sometimes improve thyroid function. Consulting an endocrinologist is crucial to determine the best approach for your specific condition and to see if long-term medication is necessary.

75years of age ,from few days feeling too much hot in body ,can't eat anything,if I eat feel like my head wl burst and BP high n low both ,feeling too much restlessness
Male | 75
These might be symptoms of many things such as an infection or not drinking enough fluid. However, there are some things which could help in the meantime: make sure that you drink plenty of water, and get some rest. But if this goes on much longer without any improvement then I would advise seeking medical attention. They can give you proper treatment for whatever is causing all these different problems.

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.

How to increase my hormone level
Male | 18
If your hormone levels are not where you would like them to be, this could lead to feelings of fatigue as well as irritability. A lack of sufficient rest, stress, or an improper diet are all potential causes behind having low hormonal amounts within the body. To create higher hormone amounts within the body: reduce stress through relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises; aim for at least 8 hours of sleep each night; eat foods that are high in healthy fats like avocados and nuts while also being good sources of protein.

I have hirsutism but I want to go and buy aldactone 100mg daily but I am scared my BP will drop
Female | 20
Hirsutism means a person has male-pattern hair growth. This can appear on the face, chest, and back among other places. To treat it, some people use a medicine called Aldactone (spironolactone). However, it might bring down your blood pressure so make sure to consult a doctor before taking it if you’re concerned about your safety. Don't start any new medications without talking with healthcare providers about them too!
