Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I had a history of thyroid issue before pregnancy. Currently, I have an issue of hair fall and mild body aches.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

The likely cause for hair loss is low hemoglobin and also for body aches is low hemoglobin and low vitamin D. Your ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) is elevated which is due to low hemoglobin (attachment removed to protect patient identity). Your thyroid is fine. So you should have Iron supplements like tablet Fericip XT (Iron and Folic acid) twice a day after breakfast and after dinner. This may cause some gastritis. Also, you should have tablet Uprise D3 60,000 units once a week for eight weeks, followed by once a month for next six months.
