I'm in my second trimester, and my thyroid was detected back in the first trimester. I've been taking medication, but now my thyroid level is 11.7, and I'm really worried about it. I had a second-level ultrasound, and thankfully everything seemed normal, and the baby is doing well. Can you guide me on this and maybe suggest some diet changes that might help with my thyroid condition?

.Well your tsh levels are still high and you definitely need to take treatment for your hypothyroidism..I would suggest you to meet a gynecologist and start the recommended treatment as you are pregnant..You don't have to worry as with the correction you can continue the pregnancy also..

Consult a Endocrinologist

View allI'm a 23-year-old guy, standing at 5'9.5". I'm really interested in knowing if I can still increase my height at this age. Could you give me some advice on this?
Growth plates in the bones of the human body close by the age of 18-21 years (for males). After these growth plates close, it is generally not possible to increase height through natural methods or medical intervention like growth hormone therapy. You may try to improve posture or focus on stretching and yoga in order to increase your perceived height.

I'm 18 now and I've noticed my height hasn't changed for the last 3 yearsI'm stuck at 5'2". With my parents' average height being 4'9", I'm wondering if there's still a chance I might grow taller, and if so, what I can do to possibly encourage more growth. Any advice?
You still have age to grow,visit Endocrinologist for evaluation and appropriate managemnet and also consume calcium rich food and also maintain regular physical activity

I'm a bit worried about my health and need some advice. Is a urea level of 12 mgdL considered very bad? What kind of medication should I be considering? Also, I'm a non-smoker, I don't drink, and I follow a vegetarian diet. Back in February, my triglycerides were 157, but now they're up to 216. This is surprising since I've lost 7 kgs through exercise and dieting. How could my triglycerides have increased despite the weight loss?
urea is normal To manage triglycerides: 1. Dietary changes: - Reduce carbohydrate intake. - Increase fiber consumption. - Choose healthy fats (avocado, nuts). - Limit sugary drinks and foods. 1. Exercise: - Continue regular physical activity (150 minutesweek). - Incorporate high-intensity interval training (HIIT).
