I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in the early stage (borderline), and my doctor prescribed Thyronorm 25 mg. I took the medicine only for one month and then stopped. Now I am planning for my second pregnancy. Will hyperthyroidism affect my pregnancy? Is it necessary to continue thyroid medication, or can I manage without it?

Borderline hyperthyroidism can affect fertility. You should restart thyroid medicine before planning pregnancy. Check current levels with Thyroid Profile. Untreated thyroid can impact babys development.

Dr. Shaik Suggests...

Take a Thyroid Profile (T3 T4 TSH) Test Test or Take a THYROID PEROXIDASE ANTIBODIES (ANTI MICROSOMAL ANTIBODIES) Test

I have thyroid problems and got a test report showing TSH 12.5. I am taking medicine, but it is still increased. What should I do?

Previously my report was on June T3 113, T4 13.9 and TSH 3.76. Recently my report is on March T3 102, T4 10.7 and TSH 3.27. Presently I am taking Thyronorm 50 medicine daily once. Will I continue the same dose or should I lower it? Please suggest?

My name is Jagadeesh, and I am a mariner. My height is 179 cm, and my current weight is 90 kg, which I believe is overweight for my height. I am actively trying to lose weight through regular morning walking and light jogging. To support my weight loss efforts, I recently purchased a supplement called Garcinia Cambogia. I would like your expert advice on whether it is safe and effective to take this supplement twice daily, 30 minutes before breakfast and dinner, as mentioned on the label. My goal is to lose at least 5 kg in 30 days. I would appreciate your guidance
