If you have confirmed hypothyroidism, treatment with Thyronorm is usually lifelong. Medication keeps hormone levels normal and prevents symptoms. Regular follow up and dose adjustment every 3 to 6 months is key.

Take a TSH Test (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Test or Take a Free (FT4) Test Test

My recent blood report shows my prolactin level is 45, and my doctor said this is causing my irregular periods. Currently, I have been prescribed tablets to regulate my periods for 3 months. Could you please advise what steps I should take to normalize my prolactin levels?

Question

8 months back my TSH was 4.5 and I am taking 87.5 mg for the past 2 years. Today my TSH is 9. My doctor is out of town. Can you please check my report and tell me if I can go for 100 mg and for how many months? Because my doctor keeps switching in between 87.5 and 100 mg. Does TSH level increase during monthly cycle? Kindly help with the dosage.

Question

My name is Jagadeesh, and I am a mariner. My height is 179 cm, and my current weight is 90 kg, which I believe is overweight for my height. I am actively trying to lose weight through regular morning walking and light jogging. To support my weight loss efforts, I recently purchased a supplement called Garcinia Cambogia. I would like your expert advice on whether it is safe and effective to take this supplement twice daily, 30 minutes before breakfast and dinner, as mentioned on the label. My goal is to lose at least 5 kg in 30 days. I would appreciate your guidance
