Men do not have a uterus, so they do not experience this process. 3. **Hormonal Changes**: Men can experience hormonal changes and symptoms related to other health conditions, but these are not the same as periods.

I've been feeling dizzy all the time and really weak for the past 15-20 days. I'm diabetic, and my PP is usually around 100, but my fasting varies between 200-250. Im on Piosys 30 mg once daily at breakfast around 8 a.m., Eurepa 0.5 four times a day, Vobit twice a day, and Basalog at 10 units around 10 p.m. I also take CTD for blood pressure. I tried Stugeron for 20 days, but it didnt help. Can you suggest something for the dizziness and weakness? Its becoming a big issue.

Your sugar levels are very high and may be your BP has increased.

How does Type II diabetes cause weight gain?

Diabetics have raised blood sugar and when there is a lot of excess blood sugar in our blood stream, it signals our body to put that excess sugar in storage. We can store some sugar in our liver and muscles, however, when these are full our body start to store the extra sugar as fat. This of course starts to cause weight gain.
