Is Drinking Advisable While Suffering With Turners Syndrome And Thyroid Disorder?
Hello! I am a 24 year old female (almost 25). I have turners syndrome (xo chromosomes) which means I have thyroid issues (88 synthroid dose ) but luckily no other major health concerns. I am on acyclovir for hvs2 and busbar for anxiety (10mg 2x/ day) as well as Zoloft 100/ day. My question is about drinking. On or off the mood meds ( which I have been on for 9months) should I abstain completely? Is moderation ok? And if I go off the mood meds? Which , I also want to ask how long I should stay on, if I have made progress? I would like a personalized answer about my mood meds and drinking, as moderate drinking may have potential health benefits, but I don t know if that is the case for me.

yes, you can take alcohol, but in limits.
There is no specific contraindication of drinking. diseases are not progressive due to low alcohol intake
