My FNAC test showed papillary carcinoma of the thyroid with metastasis. Is surgery the only treatment option available? What precautions should I take until the surgery is done?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

View allI'm a 16-year-old struggling with a few issues and hoping for some advice. I've been habitually masturbating for the past 30 months, and I'm wondering if it might be affecting my health. I'm 5'2", but I really want to grow taller. My menstrual cycle is irregular, and I have problems with constipation and insomnia. I also suffer from anxiety, and it doesn't help that I can get angry quickly and have trouble controlling my frustration. I'm quite moody, but I'm also very ambitious about my career. My weight is around 72 kg, and I feel overweight. Despite working out five times a week, I haven't seen any changes. Should I stop masturbating to help with my weight loss and height growth? Given all these things, what do you suggest regarding my masturbation habits?
Akanksha, considering your overall health and concerns, here are some suggestions: Masturbation and Health 1. Moderation is key: Limit masturbation frequency to 1-2 times a week, allowing your body and mind to balance. 2. Understand triggers: Identify emotional triggers (anxiety, frustration, mood swings) and address them through stress management techniques (meditation, deep breathing, exercise). 3. Explore alternative stress relief: Engage in hobbies, creative activities, or sports to manage stress and emotions. Health Concerns 1. Irregular menstrual cycle: Consult a gynecologist to rule out underlying hormonal imbalances. 2. Constipation: Incorporate fiber-rich foods, stay hydrated, and consider probiotics. 3. Insomnia: Establish a consistent sleep schedule, create a relaxing bedtime routine, and avoid screens before bedtime. 4. Anxiety disorder: Continue therapy or consult a psychologist for guidance. 5. Overweight: Focus on balanced diet (whole foods, fruits, veggies) alongside regular exercise. 6. Height growth: While masturbation doesn't directly impact height, prioritize overall health, nutrition, and hormone balance. Additional Suggestions 1. Nutrition: Eat a balanced diet with calcium, vitamin D, and protein-rich foods to support bone growth. 2. Hydration: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. 3. Exercise: Continue regular exercise, incorporating stretching and strength training to improve overall health. 4. Mindfulness: Practice mindfulness, meditation, or yoga to manage stress and emotions. 5. Sleep: Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep each night. 6. Seek professional help: Consult a pediatrician, gynecologist, or psychologist for personalized guidance.

I've been taking 75 mcg and 100 mcg of eltroxin on alternate days since before my delivery, and I've continued the same after. Now that it's been 45 days and my latest TSH test result is 2.2, I'm wondering what dose I should be on from now. Could you advise?
-It's great that you've had your TSH checked. With a result of 2.2, it seems like your thyroid levels are in a healthy range. However, it's best to consult with your doctor to adjust your dose based on your individual needs post-delivery. They can provide
