Question 1

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

Question 2

Hello doctor, please find my recent thyroid test report attached. Please suggest if there is any abnormality? We are planning for a baby and I am currently not on any medication.

Question 3

Hi, I have noticed bald patches on my beard and scalp. I consulted a doctor, and they advised me to do blood tests for Fasting Glucose, TSH, and Serum Anti TPO. I have done the tests, and the results are, Fasting Glucose is 93, TSH is 6.039, and Anti TPO is greater than 1300. After getting the report, I did not get a chance to consult the doctor again. I searched on the Internet and found that it may be related to thyroid problems.

Your TSH is elevated (16.1), but T3 and T4 are normal this is commonly seen in subclinical hypothyroidism. However, your symptoms (like tachycardia and anxiety) are more hyperthyroid like. Id advise repeating TSH along with anti TPO antibodies to clarify autoimmune thyroiditis.
