I'm getting a bit worried because recently I've been gaining weight, feeling really lazy, and constantly tired. My doctor recommended a blood test, and the results showed my FT4 is 0.97 ngdl and TSH is 8.52 mIUml. I'm supposed to follow up with the doc next week, but I can't help but wonder if these levels are normal or if I might have something like hyperthyroid or hypothyroid? Can you help me understand what's going on with these results?

It is a case of hypothyroidism

I'm trying to conceive and I have PCOD. My blood sugar levels are 106 when fasting and 137 two hours after a meal. Should I be worried about diabetes, or are these levels okay?

Your blood sugar levels of 106 mgdL (fasting) and 137 mgdL (2 hours after meal) are within normal range. However, since you have PCOD and are trying to conceive, it is important to monitor your blood sugar levels regularly. You can continue with a healthy diet and regular exercise to maintain your blood sugar levels. If needed, you can consult your doctor for further evaluation and management.
