My wife is unable to lose weight even after following a good diet and exercising daily. She has no symptoms of thyroid as per the blood test report we did recently. I need help in checking the symptoms which may cause this issue?

If thyroid is ruled out, consider insulin resistance or PCOS. Also check Vitamin D, cortisol, and other hormones. Please do the required metabolic and hormone profile.

Can a thyroid blood test detect pregnancy?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hi, I am 5 feet tall and weigh 74?kg. I also have thyroid issues. There is a lot of pressure on me to have a baby, and we are planning to conceive within a month. I am very concerned about my weight. What should I do? Is it possible to manage or reduce weight during pregnancy with just morning walks?
