Why Am I Gaining Weight Despite Healthy Lifestyle?

Many reasons can lead to weight gain. Among the most popular are: eating more than your body needs, lack of exercise, stress, or medical conditions. Be observant if you're experiencing more fatigue or hunger than usual, and also notice if you have a strange thirst. Do your best to eat balanced meals and be more active. Water is much preferable to sugary drinks as it can help too. Keep an eye on your weight and how you feel. Moreover, if necessary, don't hesitate to visit a doctor.

Could hormonal changes cause frequent night falls for an unmarried girl?

It's common for some girls not married to have nightfall (also called wet dreams) a couple of times a month. This is generally the result of hormonal fluctuations in your body. It is not a problem, and it will not have any effect on your married life or health. You can talk to a doctor for more reassurance if you are feeling worried.

Adding Resveratrol+Nad with Levothyroxine: Safety Concerns?

You're taking levothyroxine for subclinical hypothyroidism and are considering adding Resveratrol+NAD. Subclinical hypothyroidism means your thyroid isn't working properly, but you may not have noticeable symptoms yet. Common symptoms like tiredness, weight gain, and feeling cold may develop. Levothyroxine helps regulate your thyroid hormones. Resveratrol+NAD is a supplement some people take, but there is limited evidence of its effects on thyroid function. It's important to discuss any new supplements with your endocrinologist to ensure they won't interfere with your current treatment plan.

Control Sugar & BP Levels After Meals Naturally

A blood sugar level of 230 after eating is too high, and fluctuating blood pressure isn't good. This may indicate uncontrolled diabetes, which can cause dizziness or chest pain. To manage it, eat balanced meals, exercise regularly, and reduce salt, sugar, and stress. Drink more water, cut down on caffeine, and ensure you get good sleep. If your readings remain high, see a doctor. Maintaining balanced meals, regular exercise, less salt and sugar, and managing stress, along with staying hydrated and getting enough sleep, are crucial.

Why Am I Struggling with Diabetic Health Issues?

People suffering from diabetes have blood sugar levels that are too high. Knowledge about diabetes can cause people to think that this is a disease of the elderly only but the facts show that it is not that way. They can experience symptoms like excessive thirst, reiterating the need for the bathroom, unwilling weight reduction, and constant fatigue. It is caused when your body either is not producing enough insulin or cannot use it. Get used to eating healthy, exercising, taking medicine if needed, and checking blood sugar levels.
