I'm 21 years old and stand 5'1". I've heard about speed height capsules and ashwagandha powder. Are there any medicines or supplements out there that can actually help in increasing height? I'm really curious if these options work or if there are others I should consider.

Delayed periods can be concerning.
Before considering any medication, consult a gynecologist to rule out underlying causes, such as:
- Pregnancy
- Hormonal imbalances
- Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
- Thyroid issues
If your doctor recommends inducing periods, they may prescribe:
- Medroxyprogesterone acetate (Provera): A progesterone hormone to regulate menstrual cycles.
- Norethisterone (Primolut-N): A synthetic progesterone to induce periods.
Avoid self-medicating, as this can lead to:
- Unintended side effects
- Interactions with other medications
- Masking underlying conditions
Consult your gynecologist for personalized guidance and treatment.

I've been dealing with erectile dysfunction and went to see a doctor about it. He recommended I get tests for testosterone, vitamin B12, prolactin, and FSH. My results came back, showing testosterone at 2 ngml, vitamin B12 at 182 pgml, FSH at 2.99 mIUml, and prolactin at 7.21 ngml. I'm scheduled to see him on Thursday, but I'm feeling really anxious and worried. Is a testosterone level of 2 ngml considered critically low when the normal range is 2.8 to 8? I'm a 29-year-old male, 178 cm tall, and weigh 95 kg. I used to smoke. Can you give me any advice on this?

I've always had extremely thin wrists and forearms since childhood while the rest of my body has normal fat. No diet or exercise seems to help. Are there any quick and lasting medical treatments or surgeries that can fix this issue?
A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.
