I'm a 30-year-old woman and just found out from my tests that my prolactin levels are really high. I'm unmarried and honestly, I'm a bit worried about what this might mean. Is this something serious I should be concerned about? Any guidance would be really appreciated.

I'm worried because my Vitamin D levels are really low, and my doctor prescribed me DRise 60000 IU. I'm not sure if I should take it with milk or water. The doctor didnt mention it. What's the best way to take this supplement?

Can take DRise 60000 IU with water. It is usually recommended to take Vitamin D supplements with water for better absorption. The usual dosage is once a week for 8 weeks, followed by once a month for maintenance.

I'm a 45-year-old guy with a pretty sedentary lifestyle since I have a desk job, and I'm dealing with hypothyroidism. My TSH is at 14, T3 is 0.8, and T4 is 5.9. I've been taking Thyronorm 25mg but not very consistently. I dont have a lot of physical symptoms, but I do feel lethargic and just can't seem to get motivated to exercise. Should I think about switching brands or adjusting the dosage? Also, is there a particular time of day that's better for taking this medication? And how often should I be getting my TSH levels checked?

go for thyroid test
