Hi biswaroop it's not only how much you consume, nutrition level depends on how much your gut can digest and how much nutrition can be absorbed by your intestine. So you need to focus overall diet and nutrition level.i mean balanced diet. You can consult me through lybrate for diet chart as per your routine and activities and further guidance

Sir. I am doctor by profession working in critical care. Methyl dopa manufacture is stopped. No more available. Presently I am using nicardia retard but I am having pedal oedema and facial oedema. My resting hr is above 95. Kindly suggest me alternate medication which is safe for me to conceive.

Pedal edema is a common side effect with calcium channel blockers. Alternate would be metoprolol or a thiazide diuretic. Avoid beta blockers if you're an asthmatic. Common side effects of beta blockers are tremors and postural hypotension.
Thiazide diuretic would be ideal if no other contraindication.
Do consult your physician with detailed history.

Pregnancy may need early termination. Only drugs will never suffice. With urine protein ++, she needs regular check up and monitoring and fetal check up.

Asked for male, 74 years old from Mumbai

I am a 75 years old male, diagnosed with Essential Tremors about 15 years ago. Underwent DBS Surgery 2 years ago. The stimulator has been reprogrammed twice since the surgery, yet tremors persist. Another patient of parkinson Disease told me his tremors reduced considerably by taking Kapi Kacchu (Mucuna pruriens) powder. Since it is a herbal ayurvedic product, is it safe and recommended for me to take it as well? It is known to contain L -Dopa?

Yes it is safe, if you are taking in raw form. It contains L dopa with other molecules, so don't worry.

Asked for female, 33 years old from Hyderabad

Sir, I am 33 years old doctor by profession in critical care. Recently diagnosed to have htn and hypothyroidism since one month. Initially, bp was 190/110 now it is under control. Initially started with labetalol but I am very allergic to that had severe palpitations dizziness and itching for that. Methyl dopa no manufacture. So used olmezest beta. Now under control but changed to nicardia retard as it is safe to conceive. But I have developed oedema for it. Kindly suggest an alternative medication to control my htn. Tsh is 10 and anti tpo is 1000. Started on thyronorm of 150 mcg since 1month. Did complete workup for pcc. All reports normal. Usg and showed mild PCOS and renal doppler normal. Any suggestions for further work up.

Would say if hashimoto you have with cystic degeneration then pulse therapy would be needed well thiazides are another option.

Nothing to worry about cervical length, as short cervical length is a danger sign, nothing to concern if it is 4.6 or 3, it's all normal.

Eslo (amlodipine) should not be taken in pregnancy. There are other medicines like labetalol and methyldopa which should be taken for high BP in pregnancy.

Dear, please understand alcohol is not a reason for anything. It is acting as an inhibitor in the brain. Dopa-mine is released and you will be able to do anything when you are under the influence of alcohol. You will need self esteem and self confidence building psychotherapy.
