I've been using Penidure since I was 10 years old, and now that I'm 28, I'm really concerned about the risks of going to the hospital for my injections. Is it possible to switch to tablets instead of continuing with the injections at this point?

I'm trying to figure out what's best for my dad who's been dealing with Type 2 diabetes for about 20 years now. We found these ayurvedic tablets, IME9 and BGR34, made by Indian Labs, and are wondering which one might be better. My dad's on insulin and had bypass surgery 8 years ago. Any advice on whether either of these tablets could be helpful?

Rather than depending on ayurvedic medicine better to continue Insulin

I have gynaecomastia and got conflicting advice my homeopathic doctor says it can be cured with medicine but the cosmetic surgeon insists surgery is the only option. Can homeopathy really reduce male breast tissue and if so how long would it take? I'm getting married in a year and want to know if it's possible without surgery

While homeopathic medicine may be used for gynecomastia, it's crucial to understand that its effectiveness is not scientifically proven and may vary significantly. Surgery is generally considered the most effective and reliable treatment for gynecomastia
