my mom is 47 and has an 80mm colloid nodular goitre should she get surgery for it and are there any risks involved with the procedure
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A colloid nodular goiter of 80mm (8 centimeters) in a 47-year-old woman may be a good candidate for surgery, especially if it causes symptoms or grows rapidly. However, the decision to proceed with surgery should be made after a thorough evaluation by a qualified endocrinologist or surgeon, considering the individual's specific situation, medical history, and potential risks

I'm trying to conceive and I have PCOD. My blood sugar levels are 106 when fasting and 137 two hours after a meal. Should I be worried about diabetes, or are these levels okay?
Your blood sugar levels of 106 mgdL (fasting) and 137 mgdL (2 hours after meal) are within normal range.
