I'm a bit worried and need some advice. I had an IVF procedure on August 26th, and on September 9th, my beta hCG level was 44.34. I repeated the same test later that day, and it went up to 51.80. Then, two days later, it rose to 97.79. Am I pregnant? Please help me understand what's going on.

I've been managing my diabetes and lately, I've noticed that my fasting glucose levels are at 111. My recent tests also showed SGOT at 45 and SGPT at 55. Can I take Liv52 to help with this, or is there something else you would recommend? I'm a bit concerned about these numbers and would really appreciate some advice.

Yes diabetic person can take liv 52 Another study found that Liv.52 DS significantly decreased liver enzymes like SGOT, SGPT, serum alkaline phosphatase, and serum bilirubin.

I've got this hard lump behind my right nipple, and when I squeezed it, this yellow pus-like stuff came out, and now the lump seems smaller. It's weird because it only seemed to be on my right side, but I tried squeezing my left nipple too, and some liquid came out, which kinda hurt. I'm just wondering if this is normal or if there's something I should be worried about?

there might be infection like breast abscess. start antibiotic tablet cefixime twice a day for 5 days
