I'm really confused about something and need your help. So, a couple of weeks ago, I was diagnosed with PCOS and my doctor prescribed me Metsmail and Chirocyst to take after meals. After just a week, I've already lost 2 kg. I've been trying to control my diet during this time, too. Do you think this weight loss is because of the medication or more likely because of my diet changes? I just want to understand what's really having more effect here.

View allI've been practicing intermittent fasting for quite a while now, and it's really helped me shed a lot of fat. Plus, I do a 36-hour fast once every month. But recently, I found out I have Hypothyroidism and I'm now on thyroxine tablets on an empty stomach every morning, and I take a Vitamin D3 tablet once a week. I did mention my fasting routine to my doctor, but I completely forgot to ask if it's okay to keep doing it with my thyroid meds. And since he didn't say I should stop, I'm kind of unsure. So, is it safe to continue intermittent fasting while taking thyroid medication, or should I be concerned?
Yes you can continue fasting while on thyroid medicines In fact if you loose weight your metabolic status might get better Continue the thyroid replacement also

I'm really worried about my wife's thyroid levels. Her TSH is 12.12, T3 is 103, and T4 is 5.6. She's been having these mood swings, dry skin, constipation, headaches, and her voice sounds kind of child-like. She's 30. What kind of medication might help with this?
Your wifes thyroid levels suggest hypothyroidism, as indicated by the elevated TSH. She may need thyroid hormone replacement therapy, typically Levothyroxine, to regulate her thyroid function. It's best to consult her doctor for a precise dosage based on her specific needs and symptoms.
