Hi, Most common cause of small height is inherited from parents,but since your parents have a good height i would recommend you to get your hormonal tests like growth hormone or consult an endocrinologist because they might be really helpful to you,since your height is to small as compared to your parents.

Hi, I am a 22 years old vegetarian male. I have been diagnosed with osteopenia with a T-score of -1.0 on spine and -1.5 on femur. Following this I got my vitamin D checked (25-hydroxy test) and it came out to be 8ng/mL. I think that the low bone density is due to the lack of calcium caused by vitamin D deficiency. I got a throid profile performed and all results came normal. I am thinking of getting a calcium serum check to find out the calcium levels. I have also started taking vitamin D 10000-15000IU per day. Do you think I should get any further checks done? I also seem to have gluten allergy /celiac disease (eating wheat seemed to cause some digestive problems that went away when I stopped taking wheat) and have stopped eating wheat. Do you think I should get any further checks done? I am thinking of checking for mineral deficiency in my body.

Hi I am Dr Alok, rheumatologist. Happy to help you here I think you are on right track Patient with celiac disease, usually have vitamin d deficiency as well as other nutritional deficiencies also Repeat vitamin D level after 6 months Hope this will help Should you need any further assistance , please do not hesitate. ...

My father is 53 yrs old. He had been diagnosed with Coronary artery disease ,TMT positive,Diabetes Mellitus CT Coronary Angiogram showed High calcium score,Single Branch Vessel disease.His heart was said to be very healthy so far. A 100% blockage and 80% blockage of the arteries had been detected and collateral ways have been formed.He has not faced any symptoms of Angina so far.At the long run , anything can happen which is very sure.Could you please suggest what should be done - Bypass or Angioplasty and is it an emergency which needs to be right away?

blockage more then 75% has to be opened according to American and European recomendations. The thing that collaterals are formed and he doesn't have symptoms, on the one hand is good, it's not an amergency situatuon, but on the other hand as some diabetics can't feel pain as hard as healthy people, the real clinical picture can hide and so better not to loose time!. As for the choice between bypass surgery and angioplasty, there are some criteria (number of vessels blocked, which vessels are bl ...

I am detected with PCODs after 7 months of my marriage. I am now 26years old and got married 1.4 years ago. I am unable to conceive due to PCODs as per my gynocologist. She firstly prescribed me 1.CYSTA Rx, 2. forte tablets, with weight reduction suggestion. after 3 months in USG i got free from PCODs and i was prescribed 1.Duphaston 10mg tablets, 2. follic acid tab and calcium tab, after 2 months again I missed my periods and detected with PCODs again. Doctor prescribed 1.MYOCYST, 2.OSTOCALCIUM TAB but my periods delayed more than 2 months. Now as per my doctor, I am overweight and cant conceive till reducing weight fom 63kg to 55 minimum. Now she again prescribed me 1.cysta rx , 2. metformin for 3 months this time but i have not started this medicine because i have no patience o again again the same medicines to cure this regenerated type PCODs.I have also started workout for my weight loose. Kindly suggest me whether my doctor was suggested me right medicine or not, what is right for me, can i conceive in these PCODs (3mm to 7mm),

Hi there. I agree with the medicines that your doctor gave you. Unfortunately, once you have PCOD, you already have PCOD for life. But it doesnâ€™t mean that you canâ€™t get pregnant. Just follow your doctorâ€™s advice and you have to be patient. Pregnancy seldomly comes after just one cycle of treatment. ...

Hi, I am 27 years old. I have been suffering from Knee pain in right leg since 2 months. When I bend me knee for 5-10 mins then it pains while straighten it. Specially it hurts when i go to toilet (indian style). After doing research on google I am thinking it is becoz of high uric acid, some one told me you have arthritis, some one told me it is due to low calcium. So please suggest me what is this. I am totally confused. What should I do now

Dear, I have gone through your problem. I think, unfortunately, you are being taken for a ride. Though high uric acid and low calcium can contribute to knee pain, they don't appear to be the cause for your problem. Your problem appears to be due to something called 'chondromalacia patella'. This is a condition where the cartilage of your knee cap becomes soft and weak. Happens with excessive climbing stairs and squatting in the Indian toilet. Try avoiding stairs and using the western commode. Al ...
