It's crucial to consult with your dad's doctor or a pharmacist to adjust his medication regimen, given his recent surgery and blood pressure fluctuations. It's likely that the surgery and anesthesia may have temporarily impacted his blood pressure, but the recurrence of attacks warrants attention. The doctor will need to assess the cause of the attacks (whether related to surgery, medications, or other factors) and adjust the dosage or type of medication accordingly. It's also important to ensure he is following a healthy lifestyle (diet, exercise, stress management) to help manage both diabetes and hypertension

Can I get pregnant with hypothyroidism and irregular periods?

My breast size is only 30 with a very small cup size and I'm really self-conscious about it. Are there any medications or non-surgical options to help increase breast size naturally? I'm not interested in surgery but would love to know if there are other ways to enhance it.

Breast size is mostly genetic; no proven non-surgical method works‚Äîoils and supplements lack evidence, consult a specialist.

I'm really worried because I've got a nodule in the left lobe of my thyroid that's about 4x4 cm, and my T3, T4, and TSH levels are normal. There's also a smaller 1x1 cm nodule in the right lobe. The FNAC results advised a papillary cluster with chewing gum colloid and no nuclear groves. They mentioned excision biopsy to rule out papillary carcinoma. I'm trying to understand if this could be cancer or if it's benign. I'm really concerned about whether surgery is my only option or if there are other treatments available. Could you please guide me on what I should do?

only surgery is the option. it is a benign cancer
