When blood sugar is low, a 40-year-old woman may experience various symptoms affecting her physically and mentally. Common feelings include:

  • Shakiness or trembling
  • Sweating more than usual
  • Feeling weak or fatigued
  • Hunger or nausea
  • Dizziness or lightheadedness
  • Irritability or mood changes
  • Difficulty concentrating or confusion

These symptoms occur because the brain and body are not getting enough glucose, their main energy source. If low blood sugar is not addressed promptly, it can lead to more severe symptoms like blurred vision, headache, or even loss of consciousness.

If you or someone you know experiences these symptoms, it’s important to check blood sugar levels and consume a quick source of sugar, such as fruit juice or glucose tablets, and seek medical advice if symptoms persist or worsen.

I'm a 26-year-old guy and I think I have a hormonal imbalance causing gynocomastia. I've had it for years now and I'm really worried about it. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? Who should I see for this issue? I'd really prefer to avoid surgery if possible.

Gynaecomastia can be treated with medications or surgery—see endocrinologist or plastic surgeon.

I'm a 28-year-old male and I've been masturbating since I was 15. Now, I'm worried because my gonads and penis seem small and my testosterone levels are at 450 ngdL. From what I've found online, this seems low and might be due to hypogonadism. I'm experiencing some signs of low testosteronelike premature ejaculation, less muscle mass, mood swings, low self-confidence, and hair thinning. I recently saw a doctor about my hair loss, and she gave me DUTASTERIDE, but I'm unsure if I should take it since I think my testosterone might be low. Is 450 ngdL considered low? If it is low, what's the best treatment? Should I consider testosterone replacement therapy or something else? What can I do to overcome these issues?
