Answered by Dr. Kanchan Jain
If you have higher levels of testosterone and estrogen, then you can easily use saffron, ملٹھي, and الائچي. These spices support your overall health but have no direct effect on your hormone levels. Hormonal imbalances lead to various symptoms such as mood swings, fatigue, and weight changes. Taking all this into account, it is best for you to talk to your doctor. They can understand your health better and provide proper guidance. To be keen on health is necessary, and you should never feel nervous at any time!

I am a 35-year-old woman with hypothyroidism and I've been experiencing weight gain. What are some effective ways to manage my weight?
Male | 35
Hypothyroidism is often linked to weight increase because of slow metabolism. To control weight, eat a balanced diet with whole grains, fruits, and lean proteins while keeping the portion sizes in check. Integrating regular physical movement such as brisk walking or strength training into your life will also contribute to higher metabolism. The most important thing is to stay hydrated and get enough sleep. Therefore, checking your thyroid hormone levels with your doctor regularly is highly recommended, as adjusting the medication may be very beneficial. During an initial consultation, a diet specialist will establish a specific food plan for you.

Your test results show a non-cancerous growth, a follicular adenoma. This means surgery is usually unnecessary. Regular check-ups may be required to monitor it. Sometimes, medications help relieve symptoms like throat pressure or discomfort.

I’m writing regarding my father, [age 55 years], who has been showing schizophrenia-like symptoms for many years (around 10 years). His behaviour includes continuous talking, irritability, difficulty following instructions, and being argumentative or suspicious. He was previously on olanzapine, which used to make him very sleepy and inactive — he would mostly stay in bed all day. Because of that, we stopped olanzapine around 4 days ago and started aripiprazole 5 mg daily in the morning after breakfast. Since starting aripiprazole, he has become more awake and active, but now there is increased restlessness, excessive talking, and mild aggression. He doesn’t listen properly and gets stuck on small issues. His weight is around 90 kg, and I feel 5 mg may be too mild because his symptoms are severe and have been constant for years. I wanted to ask if it would be safe and appropriate to increase aripiprazole to 10 mg daily, or if you recommend any other adjustment or short-term calming medication during the transition. Please advise on the safest way forward — whether to raise the dose, continue 5 mg longer, or add any supportive medicine.
Male | 55
The switch from olanzapine to aripiprazole seems to have helped with his alertness but brought about some restlessness and increased talking, which can be common when adjusting medications. Given his weight and the severity of his symptoms, increasing the aripiprazole to 10 mg could be an option. However, it's crucial to consult his neurologist before making any changes. They can assess his response to the current dose and guide you on the best way forward, whether it's adjusting the dosage or adding supportive medication temporarily. These adjustments often require close monitoring to ensure the best outcome for your father. Don't hesitate to reach out to his healthcare provider for guidance.

Hello, I have high anxiety. My anxiety likes to convince me that whenever I start to feel hungry, my blood sugar is dropping even if I ate 3-4 hours prior. I don’t have any blood sugar issues, I’ve gotten tested for it before. To put my anxiety at ease, how does blood sugar drop?
Female | 17
Low blood sugar can sometimes be caused by not consuming the food for a very long time or some underlying health issues. Consuming meals and snacks at regular intervals has a positive impact on your blood sugar levels and definitely reduces your anxiety.

I'm 22 years old ,,I'm too lean,but I'm not tired anymore,,i have no thyroid issues ,,,,but my waist and thighs are so thin my face also too lean ,,,will u plz prescribe me weight gain injections for me
Female | 22
A fast metabolism or a shortage in the diet can be the reason for a person's problem of maintaining a normal weight. Weight-gaining shots are a bit unsafe since they can have side effects. To gain pounds the healthy way, you should eat foods that are high in proteins, fats, and carbohydrates such as nuts, avocados, and whole grains. Everyday activities like pushups and weightlifting can help you increase your muscles. If you feel that you are too skinny consult a nutritionist for advice.

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.

Your potassium levels are slightly high, but there's no need to worry. High potassium levels in your body might not cause any symptoms, but a weak or irregular heartbeat could be a sign of it. Possible causes include diet, certain medications, or kidney problems. To lower your potassium level, you can try changing your diet or consult your doctor for advice.

I have taken 50 mcg thyroid tablet for 6 months and also taken doctor prescribed tablets for getting pregnant... Past months nothing happened... This month my period yet not come... This is 43rd day from last period... I had taken pregnancy test... Its negative... May be there any chances of pregnancy... Can take test after some days..?
Female | 27
It's not uncommon for it to take some time. Sometimes stress or changes in routine can delay your period, making the test show negative. In fact, thyroid issues can also impact fertility. My advice would be to wait a few more days and then take another pregnancy test. If it's still negative and your period hasn't arrived, it's best to consult your gynecologist. They can provide further guidance and maybe run some additional tests to rule out any other factors affecting your fertility.

I've been gaining weight suddenly , I have had PCOS for 4 years now but suddenly last year I started gaining weight , i changed from 58kg to 68 kg in just a year or so . I've not changed by diet much but still I am gaining weight, and when I try to exercise I am getting really short of breath , I can't even exercise the most simple things
Female | 22
The weight gain could be due to your PCOS which can produce imbalances in hormones and influence metabolism. The shortness of breath accompanying exercise could indicate poor fitness or be a symptom of an underlying health problem. A gynecologist's visit is needed for a full assessment and advice on how to handle your PCOS and weight issues. In the meantime, try gentle exercises like walking and focus on a balanced diet to help improve your health.

Higher prolactin levels can affect menstrual regularity and are often associated with conditions such as hormonal imbalances.

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.
