View allIs there any way to treat gynecomastia without surgery? I've been doing exercises but they don't seem to help at all. Can it go away on its own or do I need medical intervention?
Yes, there are non-surgical treatments for gynecomastia, and exercise alone may not be enough to significantly reduce breast tissue. While exercise can help reduce overall body fat and build chest muscles, it might not address the glandular tissue itself. Medications, hormone therapy, and procedures like cryolipolysis or ultrasound therapy can also be effective. Some cases of gynecomastia, especially those caused by hormonal imbalances or puberty, may also resolve on their own over time

Can you help me understand if it's okay to drink water before getting a non-fasting blood sugar test? I'm also wondering if it's necessary to wait a full 2 hours, or is an hour and a half sufficient before getting it checked?
For a non-fasting blood sugar test, you can drink water, but avoid eating anything for at least 1-2 hours before the test; however, if you've had a meal, waiting for 2 hours is ideal, but 1.5 hours may also be acceptable, consult with your healthcare provider or lab technician for specific guidance.
