I'm worried about my sugar levels. I checked them yesterday at the lab, and it was 220 mgdl before fasting and 280 mgdl after fasting. I'm diabetic, and I'm not sure what to do next or how to bring my sugar levels down. Could you suggest some treatments or actions I should consider?

I'm dealing with gynecomastia and just got back from the doctor. The tests say I have mild bilateral gynecomastia. I'm curious if there's a natural way to treat this. If surgery is the only option, how much would that cost? Would love some guidance here.

Mild bilateral gynecomastia can be addressed through natural methods, such as weight loss, exercise, and hormonal balance, but results may vary; surgical options, like male breast reduction surgery, can be more effective, with costs ranging from 50,000 to 2 lakhs (approximately $650-$2,600 USD) per breast, depending on factors like location, surgeon's expertise, and hospital fees.

I'm 17 and weigh around 72 kg. I've been dealing with what looks like male breasts for about three years, and it's really starting to bother me. I'm not sure if it's gynecomastia or just chest fat, but surgery isn't something I want to consider. Is there any medication or other solutions I could try to help with this? I'm feeling pretty embarrassed and would really appreciate any advice you can give.

it's normal in puberty, do exercise
