Dont take that tablet anymore,consume more water and will settle down in a day,if it still continues visit Physician for appropriate management.

I'm struggling to lose weight even though I'm consistently working out and eating healthily. I've heard that high prolactin levels might be affecting my progress. What can I do about this? Any advice would be really helpful!

I've noticed my neck has been getting bigger over the past two weeks. It's not affecting my breathing or swallowing, but it is noticeable, and my family can see it too. I'm worried it might be something like a thyroid issue or a goiter since thats what my quick internet search suggested. Is there anything specific I should do, or is it okay if I send a picture for a closer look?

This needs evaluation,visit Surgeon for the same
