I'm a bit concerned because my TSH level came back at 7.5 and my doctor advised me to take Thyronorm 12.5. Is this the right approach for my condition? Also, I'm a little confused about whether this means I have hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism. Could you help clarify this for me?

Based on your TSH level of 7.5, the doctor's prescription of Thyronorm 12.5 tablets is appropriate. This medication is used to treat Hypothyroidism, which is a condition where the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone. Thyronorm helps to supplement the low levels of thyroid hormone in your body. The dosage of Thyronorm 12.5 tablets is suitable for managing your hypothyroidism

View allI'm 31, pretty active, and married, but I've noticed my sexual desire is really low. Honestly, if I'm not pushed, I could go without even thinking about sex. It's starting to get to me mentally, and with plans to start a family soon, I'm a bit worried. What should I do about this lack of interest?
Your symptoms are complex and multifaceted. It's great that you're seeking further evaluation. ENT specialists can help diagnose issues related to: - Ear pain and clogged sensations - Sinus and throat issues However, neuralgia or nerve issues might be better evaluated by: - A neurologist (for trigeminal neuralgia) - An oromaxillofacial specialist (for TMJ disorders) Consider asking your ENT specialist for a referral to one of these specialists. Before your appointment: - Keep a detailed symptom journal - Write down all your symptoms and when they occur - Share this information with your ENT specialist

What if I stop eating sugar?
Eliminating sugar could directly affect your physical health, too. Never eating any form of sugar could result in nutrient deficiency, since many nutritious foods have naturally-occurring sugars. If you eliminated fruit, for example, you'd be missing out on many essential nutrients.
