Need help with male to female hormone therapy?

Patient's Query

I need a treatment for male to female hormone reassignment therapy

Answered by Dr. Harikiran Chekuri

Male to female hormone reassignment therapy involves taking female hormones to align your physical characteristics with your gender identity. The main goal is to help you develop more feminine characteristics, like softer skin, breast growth, and a more feminine fat distribution. It's important to seek guidance from a plastic surgeon experienced in transgender care to discuss the risks, benefits, and monitoring needed during this process. They can tailor a treatment plan specifically for you, ensuring your safety and well-being throughout the transition.

Female | 23

Haan, higher testosterone ya estrogen dominance wali ladkiyan daily ek baar buffalo milk le sakti hain. Isse hormones par koi significant effect nahi hoga. Doodh mein turmeric milane se anti-inflammatory benefits milte hain, jo health ko support kar sakta hai. Agar aapko symptoms jaise mood swings, weight changes, ya skin issues mehsoos ho rahe hain, toh doctor se consult karna zaroori hai.

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.

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.

Male | 24

Judging by your levels of Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D, it appears that they are low. Low B12 can be a reason for feeling tired and weak. Low Vitamin D can be a reason for bone pain and muscle weakness. You may need to get B12 and Vitamin D supplements. Besides, it's good to consume foods that are rich in these vitamins like fish, eggs, and dairy products.

Hi mother breast feeding 16 months child Vitamin d is 5 ng/,ml Kindly suggest Any medicine and how to take

Female | 35

It seems that Vitamin D Vitamin D is lacking in your child's body. This can happen if the child does not spend enough time in nature or does not eat the necessary foods. Low levels can lead to weak bones and immunity. But you don't have to worry a lot as children can be given Vitamin D drops and using the drops once in their food will be sufficient. In addition, sunlight exposure for about 10-15 minutes also helps boost Vitamin D.

Hello , I am 27 years old and i have testosterone value 2.89 ng/mL . And i make exercises fitness 3/4 days in week My question is : Can i take some testosterone ?

Male | 27

At your age, having a level of testosterone at 2.89ng/mL is right where it should be. There are several symptoms associated with lowT which include high fatigue levels, decreased libido, and even mood swings. It might be stress or some medical problems causing it; see a doctor before taking testosterone because if not done properly this could harm your body. If you sustain your exercise routine, eat well-balanced meals daily, and have adequate sleep every night -these activities will help maintain normal levels of this hormone.
