I'm a bit concerned right now. Over the past few months, my follicular scans showed my endometrium thickness was in good range, over 6mm or even 7.75mm. But this month, it dropped to just 4.8mm. My thyroid profile looks normal with TSH, T3, and T4 levels, according to my doctor. But my antithyroglobulin and anti-TSH antibodies are really high. My doctor said I don't need meds for that, but when I went to an infertility center, they gave me Thyronorm to take every morning on an empty stomach. I'm worried if this condition is affecting my fertility or chances of getting pregnant. Could the thyroxine sodium be making my endometrium thinner? Should I even take it? Also, I'm curious if taking Estrogen Estradiol Valerate from day 5 of my period and Progesterone Duphaston from the 15th day will help thicken my endometrium and improve my chances of getting pregnant. What do you think?

Elevated anti-thyroglobulin and anti-TSH antibodies may indicate autoimmune thyroiditis, potentially affecting fertility and pregnancy; taking Thyronorm (thyroxine sodium) as prescribed by the infertility center may help regulate your thyroid function and improve fertility, despite your normal TSH, T3, and T4 levels; the medication might also contribute to the temporary thinning of your endometrium; to promote endometrial growth, your doctor's recommendation of Estradiol Valerate from Day 5 and Duphaston from Day 15 of your cycle may be beneficial, but closely monitor your endometrial thickness and adjust the treatment plan as needed.

I'm on day 13 after my IUI and have been taking progesterone. I've had headaches, leg and back pain, and sometimes my mouth waters or I feel aches like when my period is about to start. I havent taken a pregnancy test yet because my period isn't due for another four days. Can you advise me on what might be going on?

Chicken is a moderate-purine food, which means it can contribute to uric acid production in the body. However, the impact is relatively mild compared to high-purine foods like organ meats, seafood, and beer. To put things into perspective: - 3 ounces (85g) of cooked chicken contain about 150-200 mg of purines. - The recommended daily purine intake for individuals with gout or high uric acid is around 100-150 mg. If you're concerned about uric acid, consider these tips: 1. *Moderation is key*: Enjoy chicken in moderation (1-2 servings a week). 2. *Balance your diet*: Pair chicken with low-purine foods like vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy. 3. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water to help flush out uric acid. You don't necessarily need to stop eating chicken entirely, Manas. Just be mindful of your overall diet and purine intake.

I'm a 19-year-old female with a small bust and I'm curious if estrogen pills actually work to increase breast size. I've seen articles saying they do but I'm not sure about their safety. Can you recommend any specific ones if they're effective and what side effects should I watch out for? I'd prefer not to get surgery and I'm 54 kg and 43 kg so I want something natural.
