I've just found out that my TSH level is 5.22 and I'm a bit concerned. Can you tell me if this means I have hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism? Also, what precautions or steps should I be taking right now?

I'm confused about the normal range for fasting blood sugar levels. Is it supposed to be up to 100 mgdL or 110? Some lab reports mention 110, but I've seen online that it should be 100. Could you clarify this for me?

Ideally it must be lessthan 100mgdl for evaluation get HbA1c and visit Endocrinologist for appropriate management

I have small breasts and want to increase their size naturally without surgery. Are there any non-surgical options or treatments that actually work? Also, can you recommend specialists who help with this?

you can't significantly increase breast size naturally without surgery, certain exercises and lifestyle choices can improve the appearance of your breasts and strengthen the underlying muscles. Exercises like push-ups, chest presses, and arm circles can tone the pectoral muscles, which can create a more lifted and firmer appearance. Additionally, maintaining a healthy weight can also contribute to a fuller chest.
