Patient's Query
Hii i lost 10 kg weight in an year without any exercise or diet with hairfall and I am 21 yr old female I had painful periods with vomiting previously and I took emergency contraceptive pill 4 times in an year
Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri
You lost 10 kg in a year, without trying. Also, you had hair falling out, and vomiting during periods. Taking emergency contraceptive pills frequently may impact your body. These symptoms indicate possible hormone imbalances or lack of nutrients. You should see a gynecologist. They will assess these issues properly.

I am wondering can you do a test for intracellular calcium levels yourself? If the intracellular calcium levels are too high, would that show up in calcium blood test?
Male | 34
You cannot test your cell calcium levels by yourself. High calcium in the cells may not appear in a normal blood test. Too much calcium inside your cells can make you feel weak and tired. It can also make you confused. Some medicines may cause high cell calcium levels. If you have high cell calcium, your doctor may change your medicine or try other treatments.

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.

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.

I am 26yr old female, I have got blood test done where my LH: FsH ratio came 3.02, my prolactin came 66.5, my sugar was 597 at fasting, my TSH is 4.366 and my RBC count is 5.15.
Female | 26
Based on the results from your blood tests, there are some things we should investigate. High levels of prolactin can be caused by stress, certain medications, or a problem with the pituitary gland in the brain. With a fasting sugar level of 597, you may have diabetes. A TSH level of 4.366 could indicate a problem with your thyroid gland. You should see a doctor and get checked out further for treatment options.

I an 24 year old female my T4is 12.90 and TSH 2.73 , T3=1.45 and Hemoglobin=11.70. I there a matter of concern
Female | 24
Hi there, after looking at your results, it seems to me that with a few exceptions, your thyroid levels are normal. Just to mention the numbers, all TSH, T3, and T4 are great, and hemoglobin appears slightly low, enough to cause symptoms like tiredness and dizziness, or lack thereof. Increasing iron intake through food may help boost the hemoglobin level.

Hai Doctor good morning I am mother of a 14 year old girl.She has irregular periods.we consulted a gynecologist and did blood test, hormone test,TSH test.and scanning.everything is perfect except HB count.It is 10.3. First doctor gave iron and calcium tablets for two weeks.In that month period was correct . But in certain months periods come with 15 days of interval only .That is ,if it came on 17 th of this month again came on 30 th of the same month.Then doctor prescribed combee L contraceptive oral pills. My daughter ate it for one month. Doctor asked us to come on 5th day of the period then .we went again . Doctor again prescribed combee L contraceptive pills.Is it advisable to use combee L contraceptive pills for a 14 year old girl?pls advice..
Female | 14
A hemoglobin level of 10.3 can contribute to irregular periods due to inadequate oxygen supply. The iron supplements should help improve this over time. The contraceptive pills prescribed can regulate her cycle by providing a steady hormone level. It's quite common for young girls to use these pills for period irregularities. Just make sure to follow up with the gynecologist regularly to monitor her progress.

Sugar level 154 is this diabetes or not
Male | 42
A sugar level of 154 might mean diabetes, but it's not definite. Diabetes can cause increased thirst, frequent urination, tiredness, and blurry vision. The causes include genetics, unhealthy eating, and lack of exercise. To know for sure, it's wise to see a healthcare provider. They may recommend a blood test and suggest lifestyle changes or medication.

I am 30 weeks pregnant with diabetis. I am on 12 unit insulin for lunch and dinner. And 14 unit in the night for next day fasting level. I am not eating anything sweet or rice or potato still my sugar is not in control. I eat only two roti dal and sabji in day and night. In the middle I eat apple and nuts. Only. Can you guide what could be the issue. Should I increase my insulin unit. Sometimes with the same food same unit of insulin it comes normal in range like 110 but most of the time it comes 190. For morning I eat besan or dal chilla or boiled chana.
Female | 33
It is good you are taking care of your diabetes with insulin and good food. But, blood sugar can be hard to control during pregnancy because of hormone changes. Eating two rotis with dal and sabji, plus an apple and nuts is a wise choice. Check your blood sugar at different times to see how your body reacts to food and insulin. You may need to change your insulin doses with your doctor's help.

I'm Bijay Shah from Nepal. I'm suffering from high TSH level since one year.
Male | 30
A high TSH level typically indicates an underactive thyroid gland, which may lead to symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and feeling cold. It's important to investigate the underlying cause, which could be due to conditions like Hashimoto's thyroiditis or iodine deficiency. I recommend consulting with an endocrinologist for further evaluation, which may include blood tests and possibly an ultrasound of your thyroid gland. In the meantime, make sure you're eating a balanced diet and staying physically active.

I am 51 male am extremely active and barely eat but only have gained weight in my belly area. I feel that there is no other explanation other than some kind of medical condition or some kind of hormonal issue. What could it be. Thanks chad
Male | 51
Gaining belly fat even if you are active and eat properly might be the symptom of a condition called insulin resistance. This refers to a situation when your body does not react properly to insulin. The symptoms include weight gain in the belly, tiredness, and wanting to drink more water. To cope with this, take foods in balance, do frequent exercises, and consult a doctor so that they can have a medical check-up for the issue.

These symptoms can signify nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, or serious health issues. The best course of action is to go to a doctor and get a correct diagnosis and a treatment plan that is specifically made for you. These are the symptoms that you have to tell the endocrinologist at your appointment so they can guide you in understanding and treating the root causes.

Higher prolactin levels can affect menstrual regularity and are often associated with conditions such as hormonal imbalances. Symptoms of elevated prolactin may include missed periods, breast tenderness, or galactorrhea. It's important to follow up with your endocrinologist for further evaluation. They may recommend additional tests and treatment options tailored to your specific situation, which can help restore your menstrual cycle.

Your vitamin D3 level is lower than normal. Vitamin D3 deficiency can give you fatigue and weakness besides bone pain. It often happens when your body lacks exposure to sunlight or to some foods that are rich in vitamin D. For treating this condition, it is advisable to take vitamin D3 supplements that are prescribed by your doctor.

In thyroid disorders, swelling or enlargement of the thyroid gland, known as a goiter, can occur, but it is not always present.

Female | 27
From your test results, your thyroid is not producing enough desired functional capabilities. This can bring about warning signs like fatigue, weight gain, and sensitivity to cold. A high TSH level indicates that thyroid hormone production needs to be regulated again. The doctor may advise you on the kind of medication to take that works best for you.

Over the last one year I have noticed many changes like I have lost a lot of weight, skin has become very dry, eye problems, most of the time my body feel too much week that i can not describe.
Male | 19
Your symptoms suggest you have hyperthyroidism - a thyroid gland producing excessive hormone. Unintended weight loss, dry skin, eye troubles, and fatigue are signs. Your overactive thyroid makes too much hormone. With medical help, pills or therapies treat this condition. Consult an endocrinologist for proper diagnosis and care.

Year 2020 I eat 1000 mg of adentolol for 5 -6 times on different days does that time I had symptoms of sizzer s and vomiting with cough and drowzyness . then after nothing problem without treatment but suddenly now I diagnose with hypothyroidism is this due to my past attempt. And is possible to reset body
Male | 25
It's possible that the symptoms you experienced in 2020 could be related to the high dose of atenolol you took. Atenolol can sometimes cause side effects like dizziness, vomiting, and fatigue. However, hypothyroidism typically develops over time due to various factors, so it might not directly be linked to that specific incident. It's essential to focus on managing your hypothyroidism now. I recommend discussing your concerns with a endocrinologist who can evaluate your symptoms, run necessary tests, and create a personalized treatment plan for you.

Suffering from diebetic, thiroid
Female | 45
It's not uncommon for these conditions to coexist. Diabetes can sometimes lead to thyroid problems, and vice versa. The fluctuating hormone levels can really throw things off balance. There are effective ways to manage both conditions. It's crucial to take your medications regularly, watch your diet, and stay active. I recommend scheduling a follow-up with your endocrinologist to discuss your symptoms and maybe run some tests to tailor your treatment plan.
