Answered on 24th Sept '24
Hormone imbalance can cause tiredness, weight changes, irregular periods, and mood swings. It happens when hormones in your body aren't balanced. Stress, poor diet, or medical conditions can make hormones imbalanced. To fix hormones, eat healthy foods, reduce stress, and exercise regularly. Sometimes, hormone therapy from a doctor helps balance hormones.

hi my name is abhinav and i wanted to ask an opinion to an endochronologist my age is almost 19 and my height is 5'6 , i wanted to ask if i take any growth harmones can i see any growth in my height?
Male | 18
At nineteen years old, your body approaches completion of its natural growth cycle. Consuming growth hormones likely won't significantly augment your height anymore. Instead, prioritize a balanced nutritional intake, consistent physical activity, and adequate sleep patterns to nurture overall well-being. Should any apprehensions persist, consulting an endocrinologist specializing in hormone-related matters could yield tailored recommendations specific to your circumstances.

Female | 33
You may be having a condition known as hypothyroidism. This is a result of your thyroid gland not functioning properly. Among the symptoms are missed periods, weight loss, dizziness, tiredness, and shortness of breath. You should consult a doctor and book an appointment for a blood test to see how much thyroid is in your blood.

I m a 23 year old girl i have hypothyroidism and i want to know about it
Female | 23
Hypothyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland produces too few thyroid hormones. The symptoms of this may include experiencing fatigue, gaining weight for no purpose, having dry skin, and feeling constantly cold. This can occur because of an infection, an autoimmune disease, or even after pregnancy. Typically, medications are recommended to help control thyroid hormones to re-balance the levels.

i just want to ask about if my hypothyroidism problem can be cured as most of the time i have high value of TSH and also have symptoms like irregular periods, brittle nails and excessive hair loss. I'm a female of 23, i have hypothyroidism issue since i was 15.
Female | 23
It seems like you might suffer from hypothyroidism, where your thyroid doesn't produce enough thyroid hormones. This can result in high TSH levels as well as symptoms such as irregular periods, weak nails, and hair loss. Normally, hypothyroidism entails long-term treatment with thyroid hormone medications to help control its signs. You should continually see a doctor who'll watch out for your thyroid levels and modify the treatment when necessary.

I am 16 year old boy. But doesn't have any facial hair . I am eating speman tablet Himalayas. Is it good...or will work ?
Male | 16
It's normal to be concerned about facial hair during teenage years; everybody grows differently. Our body directly uses the supplements for reproductive health so we can consider them as a part of our diet. Insufficient facial hair is because of genetic factors or it may also be due to low hormones. Talking to a doctor could be the best way to know more about the situation and get some help or advice.

My hba1c is 11.3 and ppbs is328.5 and fbs is 261.6
Male | 32
Having a high HbA1c value of 11.3 means your body struggles with sugar management. Additionally, blood sugar readings of 328.5 after meals and 261.6 when fasting indicate the same issue. You may experience increased thirst, frequent urination, and fatigue as symptoms. This condition could be diabetes. To improve, make dietary changes, exercise regularly, and consider medication prescribed by a doctor for better blood sugar control.

Female | 24
Hypothyroidism indicates low thyroid hormones. Fatigue, weight gain, and concentration issues are common symptoms. PCOS is a hormone imbalance disorder. It often leads to irregular periods and difficulty conceiving. However, treatments like medication and lifestyle modifications can manage both conditions effectively. Consulting an endocrinologist is crucial for developing a personalized treatment plan.

Male | 30
Your hormone therapies' progress is wonderful. Changes often require patience, so don't fret. Continued testosterone treatment may aid your underdeveloped testes and small flaccid penis symptoms. However, consulting your doctor about concerns ensures proper progress tracking.

Female | 19
Not gaining weight despite eating enough can be due to various reasons like high metabolism, malabsorption, or thyroid issues. It’s best to consult a dietitian for a proper nutritional plan and an endocrinologist to rule out any underlying medical conditions.

Medicines need to be handled with care, especially when nursing. Expired thyroid drugs can become weaker or harmful to your health. While you may not notice immediate effects, it is important to consult your doctor. They will ensure the safety of both you and your baby. Always check the expiration dates on your medications to keep both of you safe.

Untreated diabetes weight loss medication and urine smells like sewer
Female | 44
If you do not take care of diabetes, you may lose weight. Your pee might also smell bad. This happens when your body cannot use sugar right. It starts using fat and muscle for energy instead. This causes weight loss. To fix this, you must control your diabetes. Eat healthy foods, exercise, and take medicine as told. This will help keep your blood sugar levels normal.

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.

SUGAR LEVEL 230 AFTER EATING AND 112/79 (109 PULSE) (PULSE SOMETIMES GO 77 AND SOMETIMES 110+) WHAT CAN I DO TO TO CONTROL SUGAR AND BP LIKE A NORMAL PERSON
Male | 59
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.

In pregnancy, a TSH reading at 8.5 indicates suboptimal thyroid performance. Potential manifestations encompass fatigue, increased weight, and lowered body temperature. Furthermore, implications for the fetus may arise. To rectify this issue, physicians often prescribe medication to normalize hormone levels.
