View allI'm a bit worried because I got a 10000 unit HCG trigger shot yesterday afternoon, and then last night, I felt pain in my right pelvic area that felt just like ovulation pain. Is it even possible for me to ovulate just 10 hours after the HCG shot? My IUI is scheduled for tomorrow, and now I'm feeling unsure about it. What do you think?
Teneligliptin is generally well-tolerated, but as a heart patient, monitor for: 1. Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) 2. Increased risk of heart failure 3. Acute kidney injury Interactions with Vitamin D supplements are unlikely. However, Vitamin D deficiency correction may improve insulin sensitivity, helping with diabetes control. To achieve better control, consider: 1. Regular monitoring of blood glucose and HbA1c 2. Adjusting insulin and Teneligliptin dosages under medical supervision 3. Maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine 4. Regular follow-ups with your doctor to adjust treatment plans as needed
