I'm a bit concerned about some health issues I've been experiencing recently. A few months ago, my SGPT levels were at 100 and they've gone up to 114. I usually don't drink alcohol, so I'm not sure what's causing it. On top of that, I've been dealing with thinning hair, hair loss, dull skin, and acne. My hair on my head and beard seems scattered. I've also noticed a significant drop in the volume of ejaculation. All these symptoms started showing up mostly after I went through a tough breakup which really hit me hard and led to depression. Ever since then, I've felt drowsy and low on energy all the time. My memory recall isn't great, and it's like I have brain fog. I'm at a point where I'm considering taking organic multivitamins or supplements to help. Could all of this be connected, and are there specific vitamins or supplements you think might help?
I'm really sorry you're feeling this way, and it's understandable that a difficult breakup can take a toll. Given your symptoms, it's a good idea to consult a doctor to address both your physical and emotional well-being. Supplements like multivitamins can help, but focusing on mental health support and managing stress is equally important for your overall recovery.
