I've been dealing with moderate man boobs and wanted to know if there's any approved treatment for it. Is gynexol actually effective or should I look into other options? Could hormone balancing help get rid of this or is surgery the only way?

For moderate gynecomastia (man boobs), several treatment options are available, including medical management and surgery. While Gynexol (a potential supplement) is not a scientifically proven or approved treatment for gynecomastia, it's crucial to consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment. Hormonal imbalances can contribute to gynecomastia, and some medications, like tamoxifen or anastrozole, may help address this. However, for severe cases or when medical management isn't effective, surgery, such as liposuction or mastectomy, may be necessary.

I've been dealing with PCOS and a thyroid problem for the last 8 years, and I've noticed that after putting on weight, the skin on my neck and underarms has turned a darker color. I've already tried a bunch of home remedies like lemon, sugar, tomato, and baking soda but none of them worked. Can you suggest a solution for this issue?

I'm really worried about my sugar levels. I just checked and before fasting, it was 237, and after fasting, it went up to 337. That sounds dangerous, right? I'm currently taking VOLIX M 0.3 MG. Could you advise on what steps I should take next?

Patient is advised HBA1c levels , and continue same medications twice daily.
