I'm 33 and looking to start male to female hormone replacement therapy but not surgery right now preferably pills or injections to develop feminine features. I've been searching for endocrinology doctors in Bengaluru, Bangalore, or Chennai for about 10 days but haven't found any leads. Can you recommend someone I can visit in person for a consultation?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been having chest pain and her ECG was abnormal, but her echo and TMT came out okay. Her blood tests showed she has diabetes and her thyroid level was at 10. The doctor gave her meds for the sugar and thyroid issues, but she's still in pain. What could be going on, and what should we do next?
I'm sorry to hear about your mother's continuing chest pain. Given that her ECG was abnormal but the echocardiogram (echo) and treadmill test (TMT) were normal, it's important to explore other potential causes of her chest pain, such as gastrointestinal issues, musculoskeletal problems, or anxiety. Since she has been diagnosed with diabetes and thyroid issues, it's critical to manage these conditions properly, as they can sometimes contribute to chest pain. I recommend a follow-up with her healthcare provider to reassess her symptoms, review her medication regimen, and possibly consider additional tests like a chest X-ray or a consultation with a gastroenterologist depending on her symptoms.

Can you help me understand my post-radioiodine whole body scan results after surgery for papillary carcinoma I'm a bit worried about what the findings might mean
A post-radioiodine (RAI) whole body scan is used after surgery for papillary thyroid cancer to assess for any remaining thyroid tissue or cancer cells that may not be completely removed during surgery. The scan uses a small dose of radioactive iodine to detect these cells, and the results help determine the need for further RAI treatment
