View allI've had man boobs since I was 18 and now I'm 22. At first I thought they'd go away on their own but they haven't, even with regular chest workouts. My nipples are puffy and an awkward shape which makes me think it's gynecomastia. I also have thyroid issues - could that be causing this? What's the best treatment option, medication or surgery?
It's possible you have gynecomastia, and your thyroid issues could be contributing. While it can be common for breast tissue to enlarge during puberty, if it persists into your early twenties, it's important to consult with a doctor. Your doctor can assess your specific situation, including your thyroid condition, and recommend the best course of treatment, which may include medication, liposuction, or surgery

I'm a bit worried about my health and need some advice. Is a urea level of 12 mgdL considered very bad? What kind of medication should I be considering? Also, I'm a non-smoker, I don't drink, and I follow a vegetarian diet. Back in February, my triglycerides were 157, but now they're up to 216. This is surprising since I've lost 7 kgs through exercise and dieting. How could my triglycerides have increased despite the weight loss?
urea is normal To manage triglycerides: 1. Dietary changes: - Reduce carbohydrate intake. - Increase fiber consumption. - Choose healthy fats (avocado, nuts). - Limit sugary drinks and foods. 1. Exercise: - Continue regular physical activity (150 minutesweek). - Incorporate high-intensity interval training (HIIT).
