I'm 21 and I've been dealing with gynecomastia since I was in school. I've tried going to the gym, hoping it would help, but I still don't feel confident enough to tackle strength exercises. Can you provide any advice on how to get rid of this? I'm really determined to address it now and just want to have a normal-looking chest. Any suggestions on medications, diet plans, or if I should see a doctor would be really appreciated. This situation is just so frustrating.

View allI'm a bit concerned right now. Over the past few months, my follicular scans showed my endometrium thickness was in good range, over 6mm or even 7.75mm. But this month, it dropped to just 4.8mm. My thyroid profile looks normal with TSH, T3, and T4 levels, according to my doctor. But my antithyroglobulin and anti-TSH antibodies are really high. My doctor said I don't need meds for that, but when I went to an infertility center, they gave me Thyronorm to take every morning on an empty stomach. I'm worried if this condition is affecting my fertility or chances of getting pregnant. Could the thyroxine sodium be making my endometrium thinner? Should I even take it? Also, I'm curious if taking Estrogen Estradiol Valerate from day 5 of my period and Progesterone Duphaston from the 15th day will help thicken my endometrium and improve my chances of getting pregnant. What do you think?
Elevated anti-thyroglobulin and anti-TSH antibodies may indicate autoimmune thyroiditis, potentially affecting fertility and pregnancy; taking Thyronorm (thyroxine sodium) as prescribed by the infertility center may help regulate your thyroid function and improve fertility, despite your normal TSH, T3, and T4 levels; the medication might also contribute to the temporary thinning of your endometrium; to promote endometrial growth, your doctor's recommendation of Estradiol Valerate from Day 5 and Duphaston from Day 15 of your cycle may be beneficial, but closely monitor your endometrial thickness and adjust the treatment plan as needed.

I'm 40 and my fasting sugar levels are usually around 110. I'm really committed to both intense cardio and strength workouts, and I'm sticking to a low-carb and low-fat diet. I'm really hoping to get my fasting sugar down into the 90s. Do you have any suggestions on what else I could do to achieve that?
Maintain healthy life style and get yourself checked regularly for any underlying disease and appropriate management.

I'm dealing with obesity and my endocrinologist put me on Glycomet SR 850, twice a day for the next three months. I'm wondering if this medication will help me lose weight and how exactly it works. Could you explain it to me?
Glycomet SR 850 is a medication for type 2 diabetes management, not primarily for weight loss. However, weight loss may occur as a secondary effect
