Question 1

I'm looking at my daughter's diagnostic report, and her TSH level is 8.7. From what I understand, it should be under 5.5. She's only 11 years old, so I'm just wondering if this is normal for her age or if there's something we need to address. Any advice on what steps we should take?

Question 2

I've just turned 26 and I'm a guy. I got my thyroid test results back and found that my TSH level is super low at 0.01 uIUml, although my T3, T4, FT3, and FT4 levels are all normal. I'm a bit worried about what this means. Should I be concerned and t...

I've just found out from a scan today that I have a tiny nabothian cyst on my cervix. I'm not really sure what it means and I'm a bit worried because I already have a cyst on my left ovary. Is this nabothian cyst something I should be concerned about...

Accepted Answer

A nabothian cyst is a small, benign growth on the cervix, typically harmless and asymptomatic, often resolving on its own; having a nabothian cyst is unlikely to affect pregnancy or fertility, but it's essential to monitor both the nabothian cyst and the ovarian cyst through regular check-ups with your gynecologist to ensure they don't cause any complications or affect your reproductive health

Question 5

I recently got a thyroid checkup and my TSH level came back at 100. I'm wondering how we can manage this thyroid issue, especially since I have a knee replacement surgery scheduled in 10 days. Is there any chance that the thyroid might affect the sur...

Accepted Answer

A TSH level of 100 indicates severe hypothyroidism. To control thyroid levels before your knee replacement operation, you will need to start taking Levothyroxine. The usual starting dose for adults with severe hypothyroidism is 25-50 mcg once daily. Your doctor may adjust the dose based on your TSH levels. Regarding the knee replacement operation, uncontrolled hypothyroidism can increase the risk of complications during surgery, such as heart problems and delayed wound healing. It is important to optimize your thyroid levels before the operation to reduce these risks. Make sure to inform your surgeon about your thyroid condition so they can take necessary precautions during the knee replacement surgery.
