I'm a bit concerned because after taking Dulcoflex tablets, I've noticed that I'm urinating a lot more throughout the day and I'm also experiencing some weight loss. Could you help me figure out what's going on and suggest an alternative or a better approach?

I recommend you stop taking it. Instead, you can try using Senokot tablets. Take 1-2 tablets at bedtime as needed for constipation. Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day. If you continue to experience high urine output and weight loss, please consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm really worried because we're trying to have a baby and just found out my partner's TSH levels are at 10.34. She's not on any medication yet since we just diagnosed it now. Should we focus on getting the TSH levels under control before trying to conceive, or is it safe to plan for a baby right now? Any advice on what we can do in the meantime to help manage it?

Zincovit is a multivitamin supplement containing zinc, vitamins, and minerals. _Taking Two Zincovit Tablets Per Day_ 1. _Generally safe_: Taking two Zincovit tablets per day is generally considered safe, but it's essential to follow the recommended dosage and consult your doctor. 2. _Zinc toxicity risk_: Excessive zinc consumption (>150 mgday) can lead to zinc toxicity. Zincovit typically contains 15-20 mg of zinc per tablet, so taking two tablets per day should not exceed the safe limit. 3. _Interactions with medications_: Zinc can interact with certain medications, such as antibiotics and blood thinners. Consult your doctor if you're taking any medications. _Best Time to Take Zincovit_ 1. _With meals_: Take Zincovit with meals to enhance absorption and minimize stomach upset. 2. _Morning or evening_: You can take Zincovit at any time of day, but taking it in the morning may help boost energy levels throughout the day.
