Why am I experiencing weight gain, hunger, and urination?
You are probably going through some symptoms that can be attributed to diabetes. Diabetes can make one feel very thirsty, pee a lot, and lose weight without doing anything. Moreover, it can also lead to hair loss and body pain. It is crucial to go to a healthcare professional for a blood test to determine if your blood sugar levels are normal. There are some situations where diabetes may be managed using small amendments in your diet and exercise program.

Why Am I Suffering from TSH <0.01?
A TSH level below 0.01 indicates an overactive thyroid, which can cause symptoms like tachycardia, weight loss, and anxiety. This condition may be due to hyperfunctioning of the thyroid, particularly from Graves' disease. Treatment may include medication for symptom relief and therapies targeting the underlying cause. Regular follow-up is essential.

Why is my metabolism affected by Invega Sustenna?
In some cases, medicine can actually change the way our body burns calories, and hence the weight changes. The metabolism process might be slow to return to normal for a few months after the cessation of the drug. Eat a balanced diet and exercise regularly to help things get back on track.

Why do I have hypogonadism symptoms with normal bloodwork?
With these symptoms, it seems you are battling the hard times. I would like to recommend checking your adrenal glands and thyroid function, which, if imbalances are found, could cause symptoms similar to the one you are having. Besides, a Klinefelter syndrome genetic test may be worth considering. This syndrome is one that men have which comes from the addition of an X chromosome. It is very positive that you are taking the initiative to have your blood work repeated. That's why we can rule out other potential causes of your symptoms.

Are My Thyroid Levels Normal for a 26-Year-Old?
A normal TSH level is good for thyroid health, like yours. Likewise, normal T3 and T4 levels indicate everything's fine. White hair on your scalp and beard can result from genetics, stress, or nutritional deficiencies. To address it, try maintaining a balanced diet, managing stress effectively, and using gentle hair care products.

Anorexia has an effect on the heart, which can result in this problem. Drink more fluids and take it slow when switching positions to make the condition easy to manage.

Why isn't my thyroid medication relieving my nausea?
Enduring prolonged nausea and vomiting can be challenging. While these symptoms may be related to a thyroid condition, thyroid medication alone might not fully resolve them. It's important to discuss these ongoing symptoms with your healthcare provider. In some cases, your current treatment may need additional medications or adjustments to better manage the nausea and vomiting.
