  1. Ovulation Disorders

I've been dealing with persistent high triglycerides for the past 1.5 years, and my levels are usually around 180 or 190. No matter what I do with my diet or how much I exercise, nothing seems to help. What could be going on, and is there something else I should be trying?

I am sorry to hear about your high triglyceride levels despite efforts with diet and exercise. In this case, you may benefit from medication to help lower your triglycerides. I recommend starting with a prescription of Fenofibrate (brand name Tricor) at a dosage of 145 mg daily. This medication can effectively lower triglyceride levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. It is important to continue monitoring your levels regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance.

I've been noticing that I'm sighing a lot, like every 5 to 10 minutes I'm taking a deep breath. Occasionally I can't seem to get a full deep breath. This started about 4 days ago and it's got me a bit worried. I don't have any chest pain, and my normal breathing is fine. Do you think this could be an allergy thing, something with my lungs, or maybe even my heart? I'm also yawning frequently. For context, I weigh 80 kg and I'm 169 cm tall. I have hypothyroidism and I'm on 25 mcg of thyronorm. Could any of this be linked?

it might be because of anxiety, kindly reduce your weight and your anxiety
