I'm really concerned about my wife's health. Her TSH level is at 8.16, even though her T4 and T3 levels are normal. She's just entered her first trimester of pregnancy, and I'm worried. What could be causing her TSH to be high while her other thyroid levels are normal?

I'm a 17-year-old guy and my height is 5'6". It hasn't really gone up much in the last couple of years and I'm eager to grow taller. What kind of things could I do to help increase my height?

To increase your height at 17 years old, it's important to focus on proper nutrition and exercise. Make sure you are getting enough calcium and vitamin D for bone health. Additionally, engaging in regular physical activity, especially exercises that focus on stretching and lengthening the spine, can be beneficial. You can also consider taking a multivitamin supplement to ensure you are getting all the necessary nutrients for growth. However, it's important to remember that genetics play a significant role in determining height, so it's not guaranteed that you will grow taller.

I'm trying to understand the best sperm count and motility needed for a successful IUI. My husband's count is only 3 million and his motility is 20 before washing, but it goes up to 40 after. Is this considered good for IUI? We've already tried four times, so I'm wondering if there's still a chance for success on the fifth try.

For IUI success, optimal semen parameters are: count > 10 million, motility > 32%, and post-wash motility > 40%; your husband's count is low, but motility is adequate after washing, and while chances are lower, you may still consider a 5th IUI attempt.
