Question 1

I'm 19 and a half years old and I'm about 5 feet 7 inches tall. I'm really curious about any potential height growth I could expect by the time I'm 21, especially with exercise and a proper diet. I've heard some people talk about doing setups while sticking to a cart leg - is that something that's good or bad for height growth? Also, I've been told that I might only gain about half an inch to maybe 2 inches, but that's rare. Is there any truth to that? I just want to know what I can realistically expect.

Accepted Answer

So, while your body may not grow significantly taller after 19.5 years, adopting a healthy lifestyle with good posture practices and exercises can help you reach your full potential and improve your overall body alignment.

Question 2

I'm going through IUI treatment and I had a couple of follicular sonographies. On the 14th day, my sonography showed a dominant follicle at 22mm in my right ovary. I'm a bit worried about whether that's big enough for successful egg fertilization. Could you help clear this up for me?

Question 3

I've been diagnosed with diabetes since I was 25 and have been managing it with insulin. Recently, I came across something called IME9 TABLETS on TV, which is described as an Ayurvedic wonder drug for diabetes and is supposedly approved by the government of India. Is this a legitimate medicine? Has it really been proven to help control blood glucose levels? And most importantly, is it safe to use? What's the deal with this?

Accepted Answer

IME-9 Tablets are a combination of Ayurvedic herbs and minerals that are marketed for diabetes management. However, as a medical doctor, I would recommend sticking to the insulin therapy prescribed by your healthcare provider for managing your diabetes. Insulin is a proven and effective treatment for diabetes, especially in younger individuals like yourself. While IME-9 Tablets may be approved by the government of India, the efficacy and safety of these tablets in controlling blood glucose levels may not be well-established compared to insulin therapy. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your treatment plan.

Physician opinion is advised to the patient.
