I'm a 19-year-old guy and I've been noticing that my beard isn't growing much. I eat a lot but it seems like my body isn't really growing either, as I've become taller but thinner. Also, my penis seems small to me. I usually masturbate about three times a week. Should I be concerned about my health because of these things?

View allI'm really worried about my wife's thyroid levels. Her TSH level came back as 8, which seems high, but her FT3 and FT4 are normal. Does this mean she has hypothyroidism? I looked it up and found something about subclinical hypothyroidism and a test for antibodies. Should we consider doing that test? What would be the right treatment for this situation?
Based on the high TSH level and normal FT3 and FT4 levels, it is likely that your wife has subclinical hypothyroidism. The treatment for this condition typically involves taking Levothyroxine. The usual starting dose for Levothyroxine in adults with subclinical hypothyroidism is 25-50 mcg per day. It is important to follow up with regular blood tests to monitor thyroid function and adjust the dosage as needed.

I'm a bit worried because I recently had a routine health checkup, and my HSCRP levels were 13.5, which is higher than the normal range. I take Eltroxin 100 daily. Could you let me know what steps I should take or if there's anything specific I should be concerned about with these results?
High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) levels can indicate inflammation in the body. Since your hsCRP level is elevated, it is important to address it. You can consider taking Atorvastatin 20mg daily to help reduce inflammation and lower your hsCRP levels. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, healthy diet, and stress management can also be beneficial in lowering inflammation markers in the body.
