I'm dealing with slightly elevated thyroid levels and I'm on Eltroxin 75 mg. I'm working on losing weightI'm going to the gym every day and I've lost a decent amount so far, but now my weight loss has stalled. Someone suggested I try creatine to boost my weightlifting and help burn more fat. The thing is, I'm not sure if it's safe with my thyroid situation. I also drink a lot of water, about 67 liters daily, in case that matters. Do you think creatine would be okay for me to use?

Since you are taking Eltroxin and are focusing on weight loss and fitness, adding creatine to your regimen can be safe

View allI'm 17 and really insecure about my small breast size. Is there any way to naturally increase my breast size without surgery? I feel really depressed about it and want to know if there are safe options to help them grow faster
It's understandable to feel insecure about your breast size, especially during adolescence. While natural breast growth primarily occurs during puberty, there are no guaranteed natural methods to significantly increase breast size without surgery. If you're concerned about your breast size, it's best to talk to your doctor or a gynecologist. They can help you understand what's normal for your age and help you address any potential concerns.

Can you help me understand if it's okay to drink water before getting a non-fasting blood sugar test? I'm also wondering if it's necessary to wait a full 2 hours, or is an hour and a half sufficient before getting it checked?
For a non-fasting blood sugar test, you can drink water, but avoid eating anything for at least 1-2 hours before the test; however, if you've had a meal, waiting for 2 hours is ideal, but 1.5 hours may also be acceptable, consult with your healthcare provider or lab technician for specific guidance.
