I'm a bit concerned because I recently had a treatment with FSH injections to help with conceiving. They told me only one egg developed in my right ovary, and none were growing in my left ovary.

Is this something I should be worried about for the future, or is there a way to stimulate the left ovary to produce eggs too?

My father has had type 2 diabetes for 20 years and also had bypass surgery 8 years ago. He's currently on insulin but we found two ayurvedic tablets IME9 and BGR34 from Indian labs. Which one would be safer and more effective for his condition?

As a doctor, I would advise caution with IME9 and BGR34, as they are not well-studied in large clinical trials. Since your father has long-standing diabetes and a cardiac history, it's best to continue his current treatment and consult his physician before adding any supplements, as they may interact with existing medications.
