I'm dealing with a Vitamin D3 deficiency and my doctor prescribed some Vitamin D3 capsules from Mankind that I'm supposed to take weekly. But after taking them, I've been feeling like my head is heavier and I'm constantly thirsty. Is it normal to feel this way? Could there be a problem with how I'm taking them, or is there a better way to boost my Vitamin D3 levels quickly? Any advice would be great.

For a 20mm kidney stone, medication alone may not be effective.

Consult your urologist or nephrologist for alternative treatment options.

They may recommend:

Alpha-blockers (e.g., Tamsulosin) to help pass the stone

Potassium citrate to help dissolve the stone

Pain management medication (e.g., analgesics)

Surgical options, such as lithotripsy or ureteroscopy, may also be considered.

I'm 18 and have gynaecomastia but no lactation is there any way to treat this without surgery

Yes, several non-surgical treatments can be used to address gynecomastia, particularly in teens, without the need for surgery. Many cases of gynecomastia in teenagers are related to hormonal changes during puberty and may resolve on their own within a few years. However, if the condition persists or is accompanied by pain, various medical and lifestyle interventions can be explored.
