I've been dealing with hypothyroidism and since taking my medication, my TSH levels have gone down to 1.66 from 6. I'm on 25 mcg of Thyronorm. Should I continue with the meds or is it okay to stop now?

s long as your TSH is within the normal range (and considering youre feeling well), it is generally safe to continue the medication. Always consult your doctor before making any changes to the dosage or stopping the medication. Your doctor will guide you with the best approach based on your individual health needs.

I'm really eager to increase my height and I'm aiming for around 6'1''-6'2''. Is getting HGH injections a safe or effective option for me? Also, are there specific yoga exercises that can help with height growth? I'm really curious and would appreciate any advice you could offer on both these points.

HGH injections are typically only prescribed for medical conditions related to growth hormone deficiencies, and using them without supervision can have risks. For natural height growth, focusing on yoga poses like Tadasana, Surya Namaskar, and Trikonasana can help improve posture and flexibility, which may support your growth potential. It's always best to consult a doctor before considering HGH therapy.
