Your symptomsâerectile dysfunction, fatigue, reduced muscle strength, and low energyâare likely related to an underlying medical issue rather than simply aging.
Several factors in your history could be contributing:
Hashimoto's thyroiditis: Even if you are taking Eltroxin 125 mcg, symptoms can persist if your
thyroid hormone levels are not optimally controlled.
High
triglycerides: Elevated triglycerides can affect blood vessel health and reduce blood flow, including to the penis, contributing to erectile dysfunction.
Sedentary lifestyle: Long hours of sitting in a bank job can worsen metabolic health, muscle strength, and energy levels.
Less commonly, low
testosterone,
vitamin D deficiency,
vitamin B12 deficiency, iron deficiency,
diabetes/prediabetes, or poor sleep (including sleep apnea) may also contribute.
Next Steps
In Ayurveda, this combination of symptoms may reflect an imbalance affecting Agni (digestion/metabolism), Vata, and Dhatu nourishment. Treatment is individualized and may include dietary modifications, lifestyle correction, appropriate herbal medicines, and, in selected patients, Panchakarma therapies. However, treatment should be based on a proper assessment rather than taking multiple over-the-counter formulations.

Health Tips
Aim for 150 minutes of brisk walking or other aerobic exercise per week, along with strength training 2â3 times weekly. Eat a diet rich in vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and healthy fats while reducing
sugar, refined carbohydrates, and processed foods to help lower
triglycerides. Ensure 7â8 hours of quality sleep. Avoid prolonged sittingâstand up and walk for a few minutes every hour. Take your Eltroxin on an empty stomach with water and wait at least 30â60 minutes before eating. Keep
calcium and iron supplements at least 4 hours apart from it. Since you've had these symptoms for several years despite trying different treatments, a comprehensive evaluation to identify the underlying cause is more likely to help than trying additional supplements alone. Thank you
