Case Series 02 fever with a twist 🔥
* 👩‍⚕️ A 25-year-old woman came with persistent fever lasting for one month.
* 💊 She had already used multiple antibiotics and Dolo (paracetamol) without lasting relief.
* 🧪 Further medical workup revealed a thyroid problem as the underlying cause.
* 🌡️ Surprisingly, high thyroid levels (hyperthyroidism) can sometimes cause fever.
* ⚖️ Hyperthyroidism symptoms include weight loss, palpitations, restlessness, and frequent motions.
* 💤 Hypothyroidism, on the other hand, causes weight gain, tiredness, dry skin, hair fall, and sleepiness.
* 🧠 Key learning: long-term unexplained fever can occasionally be due to thyroid issues.
* 🚫 Avoid using over-the-counter antibiotics without a doctor’s prescription — it can do more harm than good.
* 👨‍⚕️ Consult your endocrinologist for proper diagnosis and management.

Too thirsty? think again
* 💧 Drinking more than 4-5 liters a day regularly can be excessive for most people.​
* 🧠 The body has hormones (like ADH) to control thirst, so constantly feeling thirsty may indicate an underlying issue.​
* 🩸 Persistent thirst could signal diabetes or hormone problems such as diabetes insipidus.​
* 🦴 High calcium levels can also cause excessive thirst, sometimes linked to kidney stones or bone issues.​
* 🏥 Don’t always blame weather or surroundings for thirst—consult an endocrinologist if thirst is unusually high or continuous.​

Osteoporosis causes & risk factors🦴

* 🦴 Osteoporosis means bones become weaker and more fragile.
* 👵 Commonly affects post-menopausal women and older individuals.
* 💊 Risk factors: age, calcium disorders, other metabolic bone diseases, and long-term steroid use.
* 🤕 Weak bones fracture easily—even mild actions like coughing or slips can cause breaks.
* 🩻 Bone strength can be checked using a DEXA scan, which helps diagnose osteoporosis.
* 🏥 Early treatment is available if bone strength is low; consult an endocrinologist for expert care. * 📍 Location:

Do thyroid pills mean lifelong treatment?

* ❓ Many patients ask if thyroid tablets are lifelong or for a permanent problem.
* 👩‍⚕️ Not everyone needs to take thyroid tablets permanently—reasons for starting vary.
* 🤰 Sometimes tablets are started temporarily during pregnancy and stopped later.
* 🔄 Dose and severity decide if treatment is long or short term—low doses can sometimes be reduced.
* 🦠 Some thyroid problems are caused by temporary inflammation (thyroiditis), not always permanent.
* 🧬 Autoimmune thyroid issues usually last longer, but even here, about 4% can recover.
* 🧑‍⚕️ Every case is different—consult an endocrinologist for the right guidance.
