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?

Q: I'm a 26-year-old guy and I think I have a hormonal imbalance causing gynocomastia. I've had it for years now and I'm really worried about it. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? Who should I see for this issue? I'd really prefer to avoid surgery if possible.

Gynaecomastia can be treated with medications or surgery‚Äîsee endocrinologist or plastic surgeon.

Q: Is there any medication that can help shrink male breasts without surgery How well do they work and what kind of side effects should I be aware of

Medications like tamoxifen or danazol may shrink male breast tissue slightly but have side effects; surgery is more effective and permanent.
