Question 1

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?

Accepted Answer

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).

Question 2

I've been taking Thyronorm 75 mg for my thyroid, but my recent thyroid blood test showed my T3 at 86 ngdl, T4 at 6 ngdl, and TSH at 10.65 nIUml. With my TSH levels being high, I'm wondering if I need to switch my medication to 100 mg instead of the 75 mg I've been taking? Also, I'm quite lean and I'm curious if that's because of my thyroid issueshow can I put on some weight?

Question 3

I'm feeling a bit confused and worried about my thyroid levels. I had a TSH level of 23, but my free T3 and T4 were normal. So, I decided to try the B56 homeopathy drops. At around the fourth month, my TSH improved to 8.4, but after finishing eight months, it's back up to 23. I'm just wondering why it would increase again and if maybe I should consider a different treatment?

I've always had extremely thin wrists and forearms since childhood while the rest of my body has normal fat. No diet or exercise seems to help. Are there any quick and lasting medical treatments or surgeries that can fix this issue?
