I got a complete body profile test and found that my hemoglobin and RBC are below average. Please tell me how to increase them. My serum triglycerides and VLDL cholesterol are above average; please tell me how to decrease them. My thyroid is under control because of medications, but if possible, can you tell me how to manage thyroid without medications? I have attached my report. Please give me your advice on how I can keep everything under control? Thank you.

Improve iron intake (leafy greens, supplements), avoid sugar/fried food for lipids. Thyroid control without meds is rare, continue monitoring.

Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...

Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a Thyroid Profile (T3 T4 TSH) Test Test

I have sickle cell anemia and beta thalassemia. I have attached my recent blood report for your review. Could you please advise on the next steps for my treatment and management?

My mother is 51 years old and has been experiencing heavy bleeding for more than 20 days. The heavy bleeding was temporarily controlled with Tranostat tablets prescribed by the doctor, but the bleeding does not stop completely within 7 days, and when it does stop, her next period starts again within 3 weeks. Her haemoglobin level is 9.2, and her weight is 58 kg. Uterus scan and thyroid tests showed no abnormalities. What should be done further to stop this bleeding? The doctor mentioned that D and C may not help in stopping the bleeding, but they can be done if needed. Is a hysterectomy (removing the uterus) the only option?
