What medicine for hyperthyroidism with TSH at 15?

Hyperthyroidism is when the thyroid gland makes too much thyroid hormone. It can cause symptoms such as weight loss, sweating, and feeling nervous. A TSH value of 15 is considered high, which indicates an underactive thyroid. Levothyroxine could be prescribed to correct this by balancing out your levels of thyroid hormones. Be sure to follow your doctor’s advice.

What does thyroid level 4.84 and TB >10 mean?

These signs may differ, for instance, fatigue, weight gain or loss as well as coughing up blood could all indicate this disease. The cause is either malfunctioning glands in the neck region or exposure to TB bacteria through inhalation into one’s lungs.

Could a Thyroid Test Indicate a Medicine Change?

Your TSH level is a bit high, which means your thyroid isn’t making enough hormones. This can make you feel tired, gain weight, and be sensitive to the cold. People who have hypothyroidism usually take EUTHYROX 25 -- you might end up needing more or something else entirely. You must talk to your doctor about what all this means so they can help come up with a plan that will work best for you.

Why are my LH:FSH ratio, prolactin, sugar, TSH, RBC abnormal?

Based on the results from your blood tests, there are some things we should investigate. High levels of prolactin can be caused by stress, certain medications, or a problem with the pituitary gland in the brain. With a fasting sugar level of 597, you may have diabetes. A TSH level of 4.366 could indicate a problem with your thyroid gland. You should see a doctor and get checked out further for treatment options.

Can I get blood drawn after wrong dexamethasone time?

When it comes to dexamethasone suppression testing, timing is everything. If you take the pill an hour early it shouldn’t be a big deal. It's not likely to significantly alter the results of the test. You should still be able to have your blood drawn at 8 am tomorrow. Just try and follow the prescribed schedule next time for more accurate results.

What dose medicine should I take for TSH 3.6?

If your TSH level tests positive with a figure of 3.6 microIU/mL, this is within limits but slightly on the higher side. Higher than normal TSH levels often come with symptoms like fatigue, unexplained weight gain, and feeling cold when others are warm. In case you are experiencing any of these symptoms, alongside the fact that 50mcg is your current dose, it means that you may need to adjust it depending on what your body demands. You must always consult your doctor when there is a need to do so.

Why is my menstrual flow light with hyperthyroidism?

Hormonal imbalances with hyperthyroidism can alter your cycle. This may lead to light, scanty menstruation. The good news is that when you return home, it becomes normal again but changes after some time. For you, adjusting medications could be useful in balancing hormones as well as enhancing flow during menses. Have a talk with your doctor about this.

Am I at risk for diabetes with elevated Hemoglobin A1c?

If you have a Hemoglobin A1c level of 5.7-6.4%, you are at risk for diabetes. If your level is 6.5% or higher, it means that you have diabetes. Signs of this condition include thirstiness, frequent urination, weariness, or unclear eyesight at times. Overeating, genetics combined with little or no physical activity could be the cause behind it all or some of these symptoms coming up. Controlling your blood sugar requires eating well-balanced meals regularly and exercising often if not daily; medication may also be necessary depending on other factors such as age, sex, race, etc.

Can I use testosterone medication without prescription?

Taking medication to increase your testosterone without a doctor’s consent is dangerous. Low testosterone can cause symptoms such as tiredness, decreased muscle mass and mood swings. You need to know the reason for your low levels of this hormone before you start treating it with drugs. Only a qualified medical specialist can identify and cure the root cause. Therefore, do not take any pills or injections unless they are prescribed by a professional physician.
