I'm a 40-year-old woman dealing with non-cancerous myopia of the adrenal glands for the past year. I'm really hesitant about major surgery are there any other treatment options I could explore instead?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For non-cancerous adrenal tumors causing myopia, which is not the usual term for adrenal issues, but more likely a concern about hormonal imbalances or adrenal tumors, the first line of treatment is often observation and monitoring if the tumor is small and not causing symptoms. Minimally invasive surgery, like laparoscopic or robotic adrenalectomy, is often used for adrenal tumors. Alternative treatments may include medications to manage hormone imbalances or, if adrenal insufficiency is a concern, hormone replacement therapy

View allWhat dosage of Thyronorm do you think I should take if my TSH levels are at 11.5? Should I stick to 50mcg or bump it up to 100mcg? I've been on 50mcg for about 16 years, but I've recently picked up a lot of physical activity and started a healthier diet. I stopped taking my meds for about three weeks and that's when my TSH came out high. What do you suggest I do now?
Given your TSH level of 11.5 and your history of taking 50 mcg of Thyronorm for 16 years, its important to consult with your doctor. Generally, they may recommend returning to your previous dosage (50 mcg), but they might adjust it based on how your body responds to training and dietary changes. Regular monitoring is key.
