I'm really concerned because my wife has developed sugar in her 8th month of pregnancy. Her RBS is at 372, but everything else seems normal, including her urine tests. Can you give us any advice on how to manage this? We're really eager to make sure everything goes smoothly for her and the baby.

I've noticed the fat under my left underarm has been increasing and I ignored it at first but now it's making me concerned. I really don't want to go through surgery for this - what can I do to reduce it naturally?

Increased fat under the underarm can be due to localized fat accumulation, poor posture, or hormonal factors. You can try targeted exercises like arm circles, push-ups, and chest presses, along with overall weight loss through a balanced diet and regular cardio. If it persists or grows rapidly, a clinical evaluation is advised to rule out any other causes.
