I am overweight and trying to reduce my weight but I am not seeing quick results. My periods are regular. Is this fine. What else can I do to maintain regular periods.

It is good your periods are still regular despite being overweight. This suggests hormones are mostly balanced. However, weight loss takes time. Aim for slow, steady weight loss with 30 to 45 min daily exercise and balanced meals. Include more protein and fiber, avoid sugar and junk food. Consult a dietitian for personal guidance.

Take a Insulin Fasting Test Test or Take a Vitamin D (1,25 Dihydroxy Cholecalciferol) Test

Should I continue taking Thyronorm 75 mg or visit you in person? I am a student and have very limited time, so I would like to know if you can review my report and advise me online, or if an in person consultation is necessary.

My wife was diagnosed with multinodular goiter 1 year ago. Her thyroid report is normal. FNAC was also done. Some doctors are suggesting surgery while others suggest wait and watch. My concern is, after the operation, will my wife have to take thyroid medicine for her whole life? FNAC report and USG report are attached.

I am on medication with Thyronorm 88 mg, and my recent blood report shows TSH level 14.02. Should I change my dose, and if yes, should I reduce or increase it?
