Dr. Satish Kumar

Hello, Madam, Thanks for the query. Hypothyroidism if not well controlled, can lead to subfertility or infertility. So it is essential to maintin TSH <3 mU/L. Then if you are looking for conception then TSH should be maintained around 2 mU/L. Otherwise conception may not occur. If occurs, fetal development is affected and later pregnancy outcome is also affected. So please check TSH level and if needed increase the dose of thyroxine tablets. Thanks.

Diabetes is life style disease. It may be due to metformin, drug usually given your blood sugar might be be controlled due to start of again insulin action. So never skip brisk walking, diabetic diet and exercises.

Avoid milk in tea. No problem in taking 8 cups of tea with reference to your kidneys, but there may be other problems. So try to keep it within 5 cups per day. Don't try to replace water with tea.

Hello, thanks for the query. Parsley tea can be taken by a person with hypothyroidism. However, excess is not good particularly it has oxalates. Thanks.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. To control blood glucose or your diabetes in addition to appropriate anti-diabetic drugs, diet control and exercise are also needed. Since there is no mention of current blood glucose levels & HbA1c%, plus the drugs being taken with dosage, there is no way to give any opinion. As regards your weight, with 1.83 meters, height your weight is excellent. Your present BMI is only 23.29 kgs/M2, which is what is expected. Reducing the weight to 70 kgs is not required at all. For controlling diabetes, please come in a private conversation with above mentioned details, plus your diet pattern and extent of daily exercise. Thanks.

Hello, Thanks for the query. I have seen the text written. But it is unclear, T4 49.67, because normal range of total T4 is 4.6 to 12 ng/dl & Free T4 is 0.7 to 1.9 ng/dl. So I am not able to understand what you have quoted. Plus there are no units. Please come back with proper values of all the hormones like T3, T4, (total & Free) and TSH. Thanks.

Lybrate-user, fasting blood glucose level of 247 mg/100 ml is too high. That means after food it will go close to 350 to 400 mg/100 ml. This high level of glucose leads to excess of glucose being excreted from the urine, leading to a great degree of weight loss, tiredness, lethargy, no energy to do work and a host of other symptoms. It will also affect her eyes (retina), small blood vessels, nerves, kidney and heart. So rapid blood glucose control is the only option. She has to be put on appropriate medication and blood glucose levels should be brought down to fasting closer to 100 mg, pp 150 to 160 mg & hba1c%<7. Otherwise situation can be dangerous. Please initiate proper treatment, plus diet control and some physical exercise. Thanks.
