Please which drug can I use for chest pain and internal sweating

What do you mean by internal sweating?
Does this connect with the previous question?

Also, what do you mean by internal sweating?

Sportwin:
First noticed when I was 17?

There's something hard inside when I feel it

No discharge

Went to a doctor who examined me scrotum included and said it was going to pass that its a hormonal stuff

For the anxiety and depression I never took any drugs for that

Alchohol yeah
Tramadol not frequent though


Recreational drugs
Marijuana


I haven't been on any drug for a long time now

My dad seems to have it as well but it's not that noticable except he takes off his shirt


I have no idea about these drugs u mentioned

It is understood your old man having gynecomastia due to hormone changes resulting from aging. This is not a thing to cry tiger about.
You may not have used prescribable drug for your anxiety and depression but your use of marijuana, tramadol and alcohol has overwritten it.
These substances have been shown in some analysis to affect hormone distribution both in males and females. Apart from other side effects it is not to clear how these seems to cause gynaecomastia in males.
This may remain as riskfactors so to say.
However, there are certain improvement that could come about if you can just stop using them.
Should you choose to be more careful:
1. Mammogram -regarding the lump complaint and also to screen for xenobody.

2. Thyroid function test-for hyperthyroidism

3. Androgen/Estrogen hormone profiling: to know if your active testosterone is low and your estrogen is high.

4 Testicular ultrasound- for cases of tumour secreting estrogen.
Others.

Sportwin:
See sir

It's even very visible when I wear cloths

I can't still confirm a gynecomastia from here though. This is because increase fatty inclusion in the breast of males can also lead to a deceiving condition known as pseudogynaecomastia. Moreover, we can buy that from your history concerning your increase gain in weight. Also not minding the fact that gynecomastia is mostly assumed to affect males at their infant stage, puberty(short period) and oldage.

When did you start experiencing this?
Having pains in any of the breast?
Nipple discharges?

You have once complained of anxiety and depression (if I can recall), have you been using any drug on it before now whether prescribed by a doctor or not?
Are you a good drinker of alcohol?

Do you make use of recreational drugs? Perhaps once in a while?

Any health conditions that I should know that may permit a doctor to prescribe any of these drugs for you:
Cimetidine
Spironolactone, flutamide etc
Metoclopramide
Nifedipine
Others..
Perhaps, you may tell me the drugs you have been using for the past 2-3 months till the present.
Does this appear to run in the family?

Sportwin:
Hello sir I am a male but I have breasts that's visible even when I wear clothes

Am too skinny even though I eat alot

Well, it happens like this somehow to some person. You are not just meant to be like others, and you really don't have to blame yourself about this.
Weight gain simply is, calorie loss is less to calorie in take. The net calorie within time begins to show up in the body as fat. So, reduce your calorie expenditure by any means possible. This could be by stopping overtime jobs, reducing stressful activities and exercise, mental stress etc.

The need for rest after exercise is also great. Before and every stressful activities ensure to take some measure of food to start and end with. Don't miss meal time only to start eating much in a one given moment. Regarding food, eat your like. This pleases the spirit and enriches the inner being.
Sleep as much as it needful, and don't put a deferral when it calls. To enable this most time, consumption of both tea and beverages are allowable but not into odd hours of the day.

You are definitely great with that body. You likely may not know how to make it fit. You also need not to compare yourself with others since we all have different levels how we burn calories, in fact the levels of activities we daily indulge in. You make things worse when your esteem is thrown off the fence. Get lovely clothes that fits and shoes that appear smart on your feet. Talk great and smiles, it your body after all.

Drawn to the fact that nothing has happened to your weight being a good eater, may also require a medical check up if other symptoms following this are largely pronounced. This may require a physical check and examination to ascertain what may have been the cause of your body wasting condition. Do you appear older than your age? You may need to see a doctor to have him seek relevance for thyroid gland activity. Usually cases of hyperthyroidism are linked to increase calorie wasting and when the energy-body substances richly done away with, the bodybuilding substances flakes out to support. This may just be a good reason. However, some high thyroid activity are not morbid and most times delimit. Avoid alcohol. Cases of diarrhea should be diagnosed and treated.
Keep dairy of your weight and hip size. Your height is also of relevance. If you haven't improve within time of keeping to directives(at least 6months), please seek a medical health for a proper health check and review.

Which drug can I use to get fat?

No such drug made as to satisfy your desire. You may tell us why you want to put up on weight.

Flakky26:
What drug or herbal do i need to make my menstrual period come ,it has ceased for more than 2 years.equally test shows prolactin is high ,what drugs or herbal can i use? I really look forward to conceive this year.

Your not having period for about 2years may result from hyperprolactinaemia(high prolactin level in the blood).
Commonly associated with a pituitary adenomas(prolactinomas), some medications used and rarely, PCOS and CKD.
Good use of Dopamine analogs like Cabergoline and Bromocriptin have proved useful.
Meanwhile, for improvement you may stay away from most drugs to stop vomiting/nausea, cimetidine, antipsychotics and then few galactagogues of herbal origin.
Follow duration of treatment and get the doctor informed after completion after which a check on your prolactin profile is done for improvement.

Honeypour2242:
A sister of mine introduced me to the drug when i was very lean. And I used it for a year and some months before I stopped. And it's been more than 2 years that i stopped using the drug. The only side effect I don't have is infection and my menstruation does fluctuate. But till date, I have abnormal round face, stretch marks, humpiness of the upper back (shoulder), and also fat in my upper body and arm. Anytime I add weight, it's always in my arm. I don't even think im growing in the down part of my body. I'm just wondering if there is any injection or drug I can use that can wash this drug out of my body. I'm tired .

I guess you were one of those that thought it okay in using Dexamethasone in putting up weight. This is wrong anyway.
My piece of advice to you now is to seek a doctor's help for problems I perceive is coming up with a high level of your cortisol hormone (Hypercortisolism or Cushings syndrome). This may or may not be related to the Xasten you have once used.
For the lab:
1. Go for a full blood count(especially WBC in differentials)
2. Thyroid function test.
3. Cortisol hormone profile.

Honeypour2242:
Please im already suffering from the side effect of xasten drugs already. ( big chin, fat arms, tummy) my waist and bum is not even growing anyone .im big at the upper side and thin from my waist down. Please how can i go back to my normal shape , I used it for almost a year and six month and ive stopped using this drug since 2016 but there is no change in my shape, anytime i add weight, its always in my arm and chest for the past 2 years .i dont know what to do anyone, i cant even wear sleeveless for years now. Please help me .

What were you using Dexamethasone for?
Also,if these are true with you for the present, do you observe a round face, stretch marks, humpiness of the upper back (shoulder), fluctuations of your menstrual cycle, your blood pressure and lastly, how frequently you do have infection?

SusanSpicy:
Thanks Doc.
Sorry about not providing my Bio-Data
Am 24, getting married soon, hence i need to know whats wrong with me. my menstruation last for just 2-3 days and in some cases 4 days. My menstruation is irregular. No abortion before or now. Haven't given birth before.
I do feel pains in my lower abdomen every now and then, before, during and even after my monthly menstruation.
Thanks for your help.

It's alright. The former remains the same.

rosybabyy:
Hello doc, is it possible to have a vaginal delivery after a myomectomy?

Of course, it is possible.

And should it be necessary to talk with me privately, don't hesitate. Meanwhile,it on a payment basis on a mobile health consultation and supervision.

Aurevoiré!

Good morning friends,
I will be happy if every one of us comply on putting a biodata of theirs before posting their complaints. This will cover the stress of always asking for it after studying the complaint. I mean not to appear demanding as in trying to, you are not to comply if in putting it counts only in body-shaming you.
Kindly help us with the above information before placing your complaint:
Sex.
Age.
Height.
Weight.
Body Mass Index(BMI).
Skin color.
Blood pressure.
Pulse rate.

Menstrual cycle days
Menstruation duration(normally or if abnormally of last 2-3cycles)
Menstrual cycle( regular or irregular)
Degree of irregularity(of last 2-4 cycles)
LMP.

Marital status.
Abortion
Contraceptive(s) (used before now and the present)
Medications (used in last 2-3weeks and the present)
Food(likes and dislikes, not really compulsory)
Other health conditions( before now and the present)

For the now, these are enough. Then give your complaint.

SusanSpicy:
Hello Doctor in the house, I have been having this abnormal severe menstrual pains for the past two years now. Two weeks before my Menstruation, am already experiencing severe pains, can't remember the last time, I had a painless blood flow. Been to a gynecologist, she suggest I did HVS, URINALYSIS and PELVIC SCAN, which I did, bt the results shows m perfectly Okay. Pls, what can be done?

First, on your own ensure to manage pain by using pain relieving drugs merely to control not in any sense to prevent pains. You can serve yourself most of these relievers on an OTC basis. Please no abuse.
I also may have you to consider doing some exercise during your ovulation and menstruation. It will alleviate this pain too. Why taking salt-water mixture can help at increasing period flow in some females, use of salt during severe pain period in your cycle is not advisable.
Also, you can seek a doctor's help to put you on a simple contraceptive too. This will reduce your pains too.


You didn't make available some helpful biodata like your age,duration of menstruation,irregular or has been normal,given birth before, done abortion before or now and many others perhaps with abdominal complaints.
Yet, you can still try on going for more aggressive medical diagnostic techniques to knowing the cause of your problem. These may help in further diagnosis of a secondary dysmenorrhea with respect to your complaint :
1. Homonal profiling (PCOS)
2. Biopsy ( for tumour/cancer of the uterus and adnexa)
3.Laparoscopy( for abdominal complaints and Endometriosis)
4. Pap smear( should a bleeding in between cycle associates)
5. Others.

deeem:
Hello doctor, I'm supposed to see my period on the 25th of December and up till now I've not seen it.I've never experienced such delay since I started menstruation. Also since lastweek whenever I bend down to do house chores I end up having serious cramps like period is coming but at the end of the day it won't show up,so I decided to use pt strip day before yesterday around 9am and it was negative. Please what could be wrong?? Am so scared of visiting the hospital and hearing negative health report.

We don't know what could be wrong until a diagnosis is done. But we do advise you patiently stay some cycles more to see if it will come out sooner or later. I advise your not minding too much about it, less exercise, eat more of vegetables( in fact keep a good balance diet), drink more of fluids. And if you have been using some certain medications before now, you may seek a doctor's view on stopping them to see if it has any occasion with the present predicament.
After 4-5 cycles without any show, please seek a doctor's guide as to how to find a solution to the cause of cessed monthly flow, as amenorrhea.

suremum:
Thank you for your reply. The main reason for wanting to take the medication is because I have symptoms like severe headaches and it’s affecting my monthly flow too but majorly for the headaches which are always serious most time and not for fertility Per se.
I appreciate your response. I won’t use until I stop breastfeeding. Thank you so much.

O! I see! Apology if I seem to be judgemental.
Did the doctor say it was micro- or a macroprolactinomas?

suremum:
Hello doctors in the house, I am a breastfeeding mum. I have high prolactin which I had before I got pregnant with my child and I was put on Carbagoline. Now, I was having the symptoms and I met with my doctor who ask me to run a test which I did. From the test, my prolactin is still high. My question now is can I use carbagoline while breastfeeding because I am scared it might affect my baby. I spoke with my doctor on this and he said there is nothing stating it can be use or not. Please doctors, is it advisable or should I wait till I stop breastfeeding?

You can't eat your cake and have it. You can't be breastfeeding and wants fertility. If you desire to serve lactation to your baby then the use of any prolactin inhibitor such as Carbegoline is a contraindication. You really have to stop breastfeeding before thinking of using Cabergoline, else using the drug is to no effect since in one hand you are provoking the prolactin spurt by breast or nipple expression.

Emdee590:

Memunah:
Thanks so much.Will talk to my doctor. Is the size I mentioned (25*30.77mm) a large cyst??

This one! I am not too okay with it.

Memunah:
Hello doctors in the house
I need your help.. Started having this pain at the lower right hand side of my tummy in July last year.It stopped later on.Then by October 2018 the pain was severe..went in for a pelvic scan and a cyst was seen on my right ovary.
The size(25*30.77)mm
I was given some antibiotics and pain relief drugs.I got relieved.
Then I notice this pain comes when I am ovulating.
Went in for a scan today again and it's still same size. Right now I am feeling that pain again though milder than before.
My doctor keeps saying it will go itself and really I am tired.
I am getting married in few months time.Does this in anyway affect giving birth?
What can I use please?
I am tired already.

House please has anyone used anything that worked for ovarian cyst?..Help me o

It does not in anyway affect child birth. If it's only a functional cyst it will definitely go on it own. However, if it's long enough without a fall in size or if it is found to be increasing in size, a removal(as in the cyst) may be necessary.
By management, it is to be on a pain relieving medication to ease your pain especially during your mid-cycle. This will combat exacerbation coming from the mid-cycle symptoms as you watch for size changes.
Usually, the need for a removal becomes pivotal if after 3-4 cycles and the cyst is yet to reduce in size or if at all it is discern to be something far from normal.
You are advise to watch further but due to pain severity you may discus the option of a removal or use of helping hormone-regulating pills to help with its morbidity and as well for a preventive measure.

Odunbless:
Thanks so much
Am 27 years, still single. The pain in my legs has been there for years since when I was still in school but only feel it once in a while at night then and it goes when I rest. This pain became intense in 2016 and since then have been living for the pain.

The doctor said I have pcos because he was saying the ratio of the two of the hormone was 2 ratio 1, I don't know what he was talking about.

I once had pid, I was passing urine. I used almost all known antibiotics, it didn't stop. Only rocephin (not sure of the spelling) injection on the vein for 5 days cured it

I never done abortion nor gotten pregnant, never had s*x before, more reason the gynecologist am seeing now doesn't want to do laparoscopy for me. He said he wouldn't want to tamper with me. I said he should do it but he is hesitant.

The pain runs from lower abdomen, my tights, legs even to my feet and toes. The only time I feel a little bit better is when I'm just waking up in the morning, walking round the house for mins, the pain starts again

I don't vomit, no fever, no fainting. Sometimes I have blur vision, brain fog, fatigue but I think it's caused by either the drugs am using or been anemic(though I take astyfer and multivitamin every day)

The doctor is not ready to tamper what exactly?
If this is all about you and all that is enough to necessitate a Laparoscopy then he should have it done. In fact, what I think should be a problem here should be the pain due to cramping which may be a little done away with since on not having done sex(or if sex is avoided some weeks before it was planned), and then your normal pain discomfort.

Should he has no other complaint other than this and still reluctant to, kindly seek help from another doctor or specialist.

Let this one be a starting point. You may also discus the likelihood of conditions such as Ovarian torsion, pelvic congestion syndrome, PCOS, Cancer, IBS or even Sciatica in association or complicating with this problem of yours.

Good luck.

Azaebere:
For where? I'm doing great. I did myomectomy last two weeks.

That's cool. This newyear is great,just don't mind that thing. But how are you doing now?

Odunbless:
Thanks, think have done like five different ultrasound. Everything seems normal except 1.7cm uterine fibroid which the doctor said it's too small to be removed and can't be the cause of the pain.

The first hormone profile I did last year, the doctor said it was normal. I repeated it some days back after I saw another doctor, he said I have pcos though I don't have the physical features of someone having it

Have taken different drugs from pregabalin, amitripriline, dolometa b, naproxen, diclofenac and many more I don't want to mention. Even did mri of the spine when the pain first started, when they thought I had problem with the spine but the result came out okay

I just want some relieve from this pain

To diagnose endometriosis, ultrasound may not be good enough. The idea of a laparoscopy is quite okay. And I think if this endometriosis is recently diagnosed, you really have to properly managed it to avoid other serious consequences in addition to your pain.
What were the result of the profiling like that led to the doctor implicating a PCOS?

Age range?

When do you start having this problem?
Worsened during menstruation or not?
Worsened during urination or not?
Worsened during using the toilet or not?

History of abortion?
History of STDs/PID?
Given to children?

Does this pain subsides with rest or not?
When does it normally come on it own?

How does it affect your daily output?
What other abdominal complaint associate with it?

Does this pain continues from the pelvis, your thigh and runs to your leg?
What about your arms?

Dizziness?
Lightheadedness?
Increase urge to pass urine?
Vomiting?
Nausea?
Fainting?

Azaebere:
My run away friend. Happy New year.

... see this woman and reverse psychology � Is this another way to say, the rice and chicken has finished? Lol.
...same to you, friend. How are you doing?

Odunbless:
Doctors in the house or if there is anybody going through this, I need help

I have been in pains for almost two years now, a pain from my middle abdomen down to my legs that doesn't go no matter the pain relieving drug used, burning feeling in my ovaries, even all my lower abdomen. Have done several ultrasound that reveals nothing, carried out hormone profile test too but my doctor suspect endometriosis. I was placed on combination 3 for months with no improvement, the pain didn't go and the constant bleeding with clots still persist.

The drug was changed to primolut, it helped with bleeding but not with this killing pain

Please, I want to know if lapaproscopy to determine the presence of endometriosis and excision surgery can be done the same day. Hospital in Nigeria where it can be done and the cost?

Have been living for this pain day in day out, been a burden to alot of people because of no work and illness. I want to know if I still have the chance to be free from this pain. Tired of living this life

You must have really gone through a lot and most time in our troubles we almost wish ease in death than being such an irk to others and ourselves. That's is life, dear. However, nothing seems to make our problems last long than the spirit we put on it. It always get worse with a bad energy in display, it always appear endless with futile complaints and it keeps on persisting with a low spirit.
No matter what your pain now may be never be tired of living life. Be strong! Talk and appear positive always.

You have a good chance of ending or reducing this pain if the cause of it is well diagnosed and treated.
First of all, I need you to know that pain relievers reduces pain. Perhaps, to a degree to which you think they helps in stopping it but not good enough to treat the cause of pain. This is only for management.

What have been the results of the ultrasound done your on pelvis(uterus and adnexa) and abdomen(vermiforme appendix and colon) ?

What are also the result of the various hormone profiling you have covered?

What blood work on labs have you done to relate to your condition?

I think a surgery done to remove the endometriosis on that same day after a Laparoscopic confirmation only depends on the site where it is seen. Another reason for delay is the choice to know your blood works before a surgery can be done.

This procedure can be done in most university teaching hospitals and in several specialist clinic. Cost of surgery largely depends on place of choice and the specialist.

miracletoday:
I v stopped clomid since.these symptoms started after clomid.and it s been four months now

It's okay by me.

miracletoday:
I was placed on clomid by my gynae. but after 3months of usage, my flow became scanty and no of menstral days reduced to 2 days from 5.and cycle length reduced to 22.is there cause for alarm.the doc is not within reach now.

From my point of consideration you may need to put the clomid use to a hold...

Sportwin:
ok sir

how do i go about weight gain at the moment?

If I were you I would this:
1. Attend to my depression and anxiety. I will seek ways to improve in my personality and the best of everything about me. I will make myself worry less of things not really under my control and fix my being in things I can make better at my means. In a nutshell, a sound peace of life and character is worth needed to accumulate body weight.

2. Take time to rest. A good hours of sleep promote a sound mind and body growth. Please don't keep deprived yourself of it.

3. Less of exercise or strenuous activities. This is no excuse you should not indulge in helpful activities whether stressful or not.

4. Food:
a. Eat nicely prepared food that promote a normal appetite.
b. Eat food of your likes.
c. You need not consume too much fatty food especially the ones containing transfat or PUFAs. Just take eat as much as your fill can take.
d. Avoid food bingeing and unnecessary gluttony just to gain weight.

5. Know that weight gaining is gradual process. For the now and so you likely have to :
a. Put off any smoking habit.
b. Sew fitting clothe that matched with your present body size
c. seek a medical help for any health condition that can cause you to ill.
d. No use of hard drugs
