View allI'm in my 30s and my blood glucose levels are a bit higher than normal. I've heard about BGR 34 from a few friends who said it's government approved in India and completely ayurvedic. I'm really curious if it's true and if it's a good option for managing my diabetes. Can you give me some advice on this?
consult physician and then only you take medication

I'm in my ninth month of pregnancy and my TSH level is 5.15. Should I be concerned about this? Is there anything I need to do or watch out for?
A TSH level of 5.15 during pregnancy is slightly higher than the recommended range, which is generally 0.2 to 3.0 mUL in the first trimester and up to 3.5 mUL in the second and third trimesters. Its important to discuss this with your doctor, as elevated TSH may indicate an underactive thyroid, which can affect both your health and your baby's development. They may recommend further tests and possible treatment.
