I'm dealing with PCOS due to hormonal imbalances and it's caused me to gain a lot of weight. I've heard about this Ayurvedic tonic called Hempushpa and I'm curious if it's okay for me to take it. Can you let me know if it might help?

I used to masturbate a lot, like twice a day, and now I feel like my hands and arms have gotten so thin. I'm really worried and wondering what I can do to get bigger arms in the next 20 days. Are there any supplements that could help with this?

Hey, don't go with 20days, 1month advertisement, have meals at regular intervals, don't skip meals , have meat ,ghee, egg, fish etc... do exercise daily. Increase your body weight. Go for gym

I'm diabetic and have been for about 45 months. My latest HBA1C reading came back as 5.6, and I'm trying to understand what that really means. Also, I noticed my mean blood glucose level is 122 mgdL. Could you explain if that's considered normal or not? I'm a bit concerned and would love some clarity.

normal hba1c is 5.6 and if your fasting is 122mgdl then it comes under pre diabetic range
