I am a thyroid patient and also have PCOD, which causes irregular periods. My recent sonogram shows an endometrial thickness of 7.1 mm. I have gained weight in the last 2 months and often feel dull and drowsy. Additionally, my TB test is positive, but my doctor advised not to take TB medication. What should I do now?

TB positive test must be discussed with a specialist, even if no symptoms. PCOD and thyroid together can cause weight gain and fatigue.
Dr. Ezhilarasan Suggests...
Take a TSH Test (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Test or Take a TB Gold Test Test

Hi sir, I have been undergoing treatment for MDR TB and have been regularly taking all prescribed medications as per my doctor instructions. These include Monopas, Ethio 250, Mycotuf C 250 mg, Levofloxacin, Benadon, Sompraz D, and Clotas EH. My recent chest X ray report shows that the left hilar shadow appears prominent. However, my blood test results are mostly normal, except for an elevated TSH level of 7.080, for which I take one tablet of Thyrox 100 daily. Please let me know what the prominent hilar shadow on the chest X ray might indicate and what steps should be taken next.

Hi Doctor, I have been dealing with a mild thyroid issue (TSH 5.0) for the past 8 months. Recently, I noticed dry skin, so I repeated the thyroid test, and now my TSH is 7.8. How concerning is this? Can it be managed through nutrition, meditation, and exercise, or should I consult a doctor as soon as possible? I would greatly appreciate your advice. Please refer to the attached screenshot of my test report.
