Any idea for breast reduction

Hello Praveen Ji,

We're really sorry to hear about your mother. She's going through a lot, and it's important she gets the right care quickly.

Since she has a post-COVID lung infection, fits (which may suggest a neurological issue), and thyroid problems, she'll need a multi-speciality hospital where a team of doctors, especially a pulmonologist, neurologist, and endocrinologist, can evaluate her condition together.

In Hyderabad, some good hospitals you can consider are:

• AIG Hospitals, Gachibowli – known for excellent pulmonary and neurology care.

• Yashoda Hospitals, Somajiguda/Secunderabad, has all major specialities and advanced ICU care.

• Gandhi Hospital – a government hospital empanelled under Ayushman Bharat for eligible patients.

If your family is eligible for Ayushman Bharat (PM-JAY), you can use it to cover hospitalisation and treatment costs in empanelled hospitals. Just carry your Ayushman Bharat card and Aadhaar during the visit.

To check the empanelled Ayushman Bharat hospitals in your city:

1. Visit the official PM-JAY website: https://hospitals.pmjay.gov.in

2. Click on "Find Empanelled Hospitals"

3. Select Telangana as the state and Hyderabad as the district

4. You'll see a full list of hospitals, including private and government facilities, covered under the scheme

Wishing your mother a safe and speedy recovery.

Hello Subhash ji,

You’re right to question whether just 2 days of taking multivitamins can help. In most cases, multivitamins take 2 to 4 weeks of regular use to show noticeable benefits like improved energy, reduced fatigue, or better skin and hair. Some nutrients, like vitamin B12 or D, may take even longer, especially if the deficiency is severe.

If your wife feels better for a couple of days after taking them, it could be:

• A placebo effect (feeling better just because you expect to), or

• Temporary relief from a mild vitamin deficiency or general tiredness.

But since the weakness keeps coming back, it’s important not to rely only on supplements. This pattern may point to something more, like:

• Low haemoglobin (anaemia)

• Thyroid imbalance

• Poor nutrition

• Or even stress and lack of proper rest

The best step forward is to get a few basic blood tests—CBC, thyroid function, vitamin B12, and D levels—to identify the root cause.

Wishing your wife a speedy and lasting recovery! Let us know how we can support you.

Hello Vijay Ji,

Period pain is common, but if it's disrupting your daily life, it deserves attention. While stopping it forever isn’t always possible, the right approach can significantly reduce or even eliminate it, especially if the root cause is treated.

First, understand why it's happening:

• Most commonly, it's due to natural uterine contractions.

• But if the pain is severe or worsening, it could be due to conditions like endometriosis, fibroids, or adenomyosis, which require medical evaluation.

Lifestyle changes that can truly help:

• Exercise regularly – walking, yoga, or light cardio improves blood flow and eases cramps.

• Heat therapy – a warm water bag on the lower abdomen can provide quick relief.

• Avoid caffeine and processed foods – they may worsen bloating and cramps.

• A balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables. 

• Eat anti-inflammatory foods – like turmeric, ginger, leafy greens, nuts, and omega-3-rich fish.

• Sleep well and manage stress – both play a role in hormonal balance.

Medication (only under doctor’s advice):

• Pain relievers like ibuprofen or mefenamic acid can ease cramps.

• Hormonal treatments (like birth control pills or IUDs) may lighten or stop periods and reduce pain.

When medical treatment is needed:

• If pain is severe, persistent, or worsening, consult a gynaecologist to rule out underlying issues.

• For diagnosed conditions like endometriosis, treatment options include medication, hormonal therapy, or minor surgery.

• In rare cases, and only after medical advice, a hysterectomy may be considered.

HexaHealth can help you connect with expert gynaecologists, get scans or second opinions, and check if treatments are covered under insurance or government schemes like Ayushman Bharat.

Wishing you the best of health!
