Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

From your reports, I observe you have a vitamin D deficiency, subclinical hypothyroidism, transaminitis, and reduced HDL (high-density lipoprotein). You are overweight. So, I would advise you to engage in physical exercises, brisk walking, and make dietary modifications.

For diabetes, you are already taking Metformin 2 gms a day. So, the only thing to be done is to control the levels by adopting a healthy lifestyle. Take a vitamin D3 Calcirol sachet 60000 units a week for ten weeks. Seek an endocrinologist to manage your subclinical hypothyroidism.

I hope that this answers your query.

Kindly follow up if you have more doubts.

Thank you.
