I'm a 19-year-old guy, and I'm about 5'4". I've been looking into ways to grow taller and came across something called SBL Rite-Hite. I'm curious about how I should be taking it. Could you suggest the right dosage for me? Also, any tips on how I can increase my height at this age would be really helpful.

For height growth, consider ORTHOPAEDICIAN before taking any supplements like SBL Right Hite; however, here are some general tips to support height growth: maintain a balanced diet rich in calcium, vitamin D, and protein, exercise regularly, focusing on stretching and strengthening exercises like yoga or Pilates, get adequate sleep (7-9 hours), manage stress, and consider incorporating height-promoting nutrients like zinc, magnesium, and vitamin B12 into your diet.

View allI have PCOS and only my left fallopian tube is open while the right one is blocked. My doctor prescribed medication for fertilization but also suggested laparoscopic surgery. Is the surgery really necessary or are there other ways to clear the blocked tube? Can I still get pregnant with just one open tube?

I'm getting a bit worried because recently I've been gaining weight, feeling really lazy, and constantly tired. My doctor recommended a blood test, and the results showed my FT4 is 0.97 ngdl and TSH is 8.52 mIUml. I'm supposed to follow up with the doc next week, but I can't help but wonder if these levels are normal or if I might have something like hyperthyroid or hypothyroid? Can you help me understand what's going on with these results?
It is a case of hypothyroidism
