Question 1

Hello I am Nikesh. I have recently started weight training programme in local gym after a gap of around 4 to 5 years. I am only able to workout in gym for 3 or 4 days a week due to work related restrictions. I am taking 33 grams of whey protein 5 grams Bcaa 5 grams creatine only on workout days. I have high TSH level and take 100 to 150 mg of thyroxine daily. I also suffer from urticaria. I also would like to know what other supplements I can take to increase results of my workout like fat burners C4 testosterone etc to increase metabolism and if supplements I am already taking are safe for my medical conditions? My goals are proper fitness good body and weight loss of around 5 to 7 kg. My present weight is 85 kg height is 5 feet 9 inches and age is 36 years. Awaiting reply. Regards Nikesh Karsiya.

Question 3

Is it safe or possible to lose weight during pregnancy if someone is overweight and has thyroid issues? I am concerned because being overweight may lead to excessive weight gain during pregnancy, which could affect health. Could you please guide me on how to manage weight safely in this situation?

Why don't I gain weight in hypothyroidism?

Hypothyroidism slows metabolism hence, its unlikely to cause weight loss. Instead it can cause weight gain.
