I recently did a sugar test and my fasting level was 92, not sure if that's okay. After eating, it was 150. I have a family history of sugar problems, so should I be concerned about these numbers and think about seeing a doctor?

Based on your results, a fasting sugar of 92 mgdL is within the normal range, but a post-meal reading of 150 mgdL could indicate prediabetes or early signs of insulin resistance. Given your family history of diabetes, I recommend consulting a doctor for further evaluation and to discuss preventive measures.

View allI'm really thinking about those testosterone tablets I saw from well-known brands like Cipla. Here's the thing, I'm dealing with obesity and my height's not ideal, plus I've been having some ED issues. It's tempting to think these pills could turn things around for me, you know, make me stronger with great muscles and increase my sex drive. I've never tried any self-medication before, but the idea of these tablets got me really curious. Do you think they could turn me into a 'superman'? What's the actual purpose of these pills? Could they help my health, or might they just make things worse? I really want to understand what these are all about before I do something potentially harmful. Could you shed some light on this for me?
strongly advise against self-medicating with testosterone tablets, as they can have serious health consequences, particularly for someone with obesity and ED; testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) should only be prescribed by a doctor for medically diagnosed hypogonadism, and not for athletic enhancement or bodybuilding; misusing testosterone can lead to adverse effects like prostate issues, blood clots, liver damage, acne, and mood changes; instead, focus on healthy lifestyle modifications, such as weight loss, exercise, and stress management, which can help improve overall health, ED, and testosterone levels naturally.
