I was using isotroin20 for a while and it seems to have given me PCOD. Now I'm on aldactone50 and it's causing breast pain. I'm really worried and wondering if I should just stop taking it immediately or if I need to gradually reduce the dosage. Any advice on what I should do?

It is not recommended to stop aldactone-50 abruptly, as it can lead to potential withdrawal effects. It is advisable to gradually reduce the dosage under the guidance of your healthcare provider. You may need to taper off the medication slowly to minimize any potential side effects.

The scan uses a small dose of radioactive iodine to detect these cells, and the results help determine the need for further RAI treatment

A TSH value of 17.32 is significantly elevated, indicating hypothyroidism, a condition where the thyroid gland doesn't produce enough thyroid hormones; being overweight can be both a cause and a consequence of hypothyroidism;
