Patient's Query

I have tested with pregnancy kit so many times the result is negative..but I have took birth control pills last month still I got my periods on time but it was few drop but thisonth i did not get periods and I am gaining weight can you please suggest me medicine to get immediate periods

Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri

Sometimes irregular periods can happen due to various reasons. Stress, hormonal imbalances, sudden weight changes, or even changes in your birth control can all play a role. It's good that you've been proactive about testing for pregnancy. In fact, irregular periods can also cause weight fluctuations. I recommend you see a gynecologist to determine the underlying cause. They may suggest tests to check your hormone levels or other factors. It's important not to self-prescribe medication to induce periods as it can be risky.

I have been on thyroid medication for nearly 8 years. Medicine name thyroxine sodium tablets 25 mcg. 1 tablet daily. In recent report tsh is 6.911 Does the power need to be increased to 50 mcg? Suggest right dose

Female | 47

It's important to note that a TSH level of 6.911 may indicate that your current thyroxine dosage is insufficient. Symptoms of hypothyroidism can include fatigue, weight gain, and sensitivity to colds, among others. A slight increase to 50 mcg may help return your TSH levels to normal. However, any adjustments to medication should always be discussed with your healthcare provider, as they can assess your overall health and tailor the treatment to your needs.

Hy i am Shama Pawha i have irregular peroid , acne problem, hair fall , and also i have thyroid problem.

Female | 25

Irregular periods, acne, hair fall, and thyroid problems can be related to each other. Thyroid issues can interfere with your hormones, thus causing period and skin problems. Hair loss could also be caused by thyroid deficiency. Checking up with a doctor for your thyroid levels and being treated for it can help normalize the situation. They may prescribe specific medications or suggest other treatments to ameliorate the symptoms.

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 am 55 year old person and having thyroid problem for last few years. I am taking medicine EUTHYROX 25. But I am in doubt with this medicine. Recently I tested my TSH test again, which result is below... T3 - 1.26 ng/mL T4 - 7.66 ug/dL TSH - 4.25 ml/UL (CLIA METHOD) Please suggest correct type of thyroid and medicine. Thanks

Male | 55

Your TSH level is a bit high, which means your thyroid isn’t making enough hormones. This can make you feel tired, gain weight, and be sensitive to the cold. People who have hypothyroidism usually take EUTHYROX 25 -- you might end up needing more or something else entirely. You must talk to your doctor about what all this means so they can help come up with a plan that will work best for you.

My TSH LEVEL IS 6.5 , WHAT IS TREATMENT My B12 is 198

Male | 54

Your TSH is 6.5 which means that you may have a thyroid problem. One of the symptoms of this could be feeling weak, gaining weight, or getting cold easily. In addition, with a B12 level of only 198, you are also at risk of feeling numb and weak. You might require medicine to fix the thyroid issue while low B12 might call for adjusting your diet or taking supplements.

For Diabetic and cholesterol levels are high

Male | 47

Elevated blood sugar and fat are the main culprits of fatigue, thirst, and discomfort. These health problems can arise from making bad food choices, sedentary lifestyle, or genetic predisposition. To restore your health, stick to a diet that is rich in fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein, and lower sugar and saturated fat intake. You can also accomplish this by exercising regularly and sticking to a balanced diet. The use of regular sugar monitoring can help you.

Mera tsh level 5.94 hai to Mai 25mcg ki tablet le sakti

Female | 26

A TSH level of 5.94 might indicate a problem with your thyroid gland. If you're feeling tired, gaining weight, or always feeling cold, these could be signs of an underactive thyroid. Taking a 25 mcg tablet daily can help balance your thyroid hormone levels. However, it's important to consult your doctor and have regular check-ups to stay on track.

Thyroid high hone se kya bimri ho jati hai

The thyroid gland cre­ates hormones. Too many hormones me­an hyperthyroidism. You may lose weight, fe­el anxious, have a fast heartbe­at, or sweat excessive­ly. Graves' disease cause­s hyperthyroidism. Medications lower thyroid hormone­ levels. In seve­re cases, surgery re­moves part of the thyroid. If you suspect hype­rthyroidism, consult your doctor immediately. They can e­valuate symptoms and prescribe tre­atment.

Testosterone aur estrogen ke levels ka imbalance kabhi-kabhi nightfall, yaani involuntary ejaculation, ke wajah ban sakta hai.

Hello sir, myself Ranjit Yadav and my age is 19 years height growth was stop from 2yrs i was at same height 5.0 and i want increase my height, Someone suggested me to take height growth hormone (hgh) so this my question is that good to take and from where i get ?

Male | 19

It is expected that the height growth will stop changing around age 16-18. Growth hormones are unsafe to take without the doctor's advice. Height is the consequence of genes. Healthy nourishment, sufficient sleep, and physical activity can support you to grow to your highest potential. If you have any concerns, it is most appropriate to consult with a doctor who can provide you with the right advice.

Hello Doctor, I am sharing details about my father, who is 64 years old. He has always lived a healthy lifestyle — he regularly practices yoga and meditation, does not eat outside food, and quit smoking 15 years ago. However, in the last 6–8 months, he has experienced a sudden weight loss of around 10 kg and has developed a lump in his neck. He had tuberculosis around 30 years ago and completed 6–8 months of treatment at that time. Because of that history, he initially thought that TB might have returned. He recently underwent a CT scan. Based on the report, the doctor also said that it does not look like cancer and that there is a 95% chance of it being TB. However, they advised that treatment cannot be started without FNAC or a biopsy.His FNAC report showed “Metastatic poorly differentiated carcinoma.” After that, we waited for the biopsy results. The biopsy diagnosis has also come as “Poorly differentiated carcinoma.” The report further mentions that Immunohistochemical (IHC) marker study is advised.I have shared all the reports of CT , FNAC, biopsy, Ihc marker , pet CT and the treatment details with you in the PDF. I wanted to ask whether the current treatment plan is correct with chemotherapy and immunotherapy and if we are on the best possible path for my father’s recovery. I want to make sure he is getting the best and most effective treatment available. And surgery is possible in this condition ? If there is anything more that should be added or any further tests or therapies you recommend, please let me know.

Hello Dr, hope ur doing well! 23yrs old female not married Actually i wanna consult u abt taking Progyluton while i don’t have ovarian cysts neither irregular periods just that i got high testosterone 3.01 and prolactin 26.11 levels somehow. One of the physicians prescribe Cabergoline only that decrease prolactin but what abt testosterone as well, so what i gotta take? P.s. there’s hairsuitism only on chin and legs not chest and back Some pustules n papules acne as well but too rare. Thank you:))

Female | 23

High testoste­rone may cause unwanted hair growth and acne­. Cabergoline treats prolactin issue­s. However, spironolactone tackle­s excess testoste­rone, potentially reducing hirsutism and acne­ by lowering testosterone­ levels. It's wise to discuss this me­dication option with your doctor, as their guidance ensure­s your well-being.
