What's the best way to reduce gynaecomastia naturally without surgery Do exercises actually help or is surgery the only option I've heard mixed things and want to know what really works
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
While exercises like cardio and strength training can help reduce overall body fat and potentially improve the appearance of the chest by building muscle, they cannot directly remove or reduce the breast tissue enlargement caused by gynecomastia. Surgery is generally the only effective method for addressing the underlying breast tissue

View allI've been doing my best to manage my diabetes by losing weight and paying attention to what I eat. My latest A1C was 6.4, which I thought was pretty good. I'm still on medication though, and today I suddenly felt really shaky and weak until I ate something sugary. I'm wondering if I need to continue taking my meds given these symptoms?

I've been on Thyronorm 25 mcg for the past two years, but I recently had a couple of lab tests. The first one was 20 days ago, and I hadn't taken my morning dose thenit showed a level of 4.8. Yesterday, I took the test after having my morning dose, and the level was 2.6. Do you think I should consider reducing my dosage?
Based on the lab results, it appears that your thyroid levels have improved after taking your morning dose. The lower value (2.6) suggests that the current dosage may be appropriate. However, I recommend discussing this with your healthcare provider to determine if a dosage adjustment is necessary, as they can assess your overall health and treatment response more accurately.

I'm a 43-year-old IT professional dealing with obesity and I've noticed that my fasting blood glucose level is at 148. I'm already on 1 tab of Asomex LT for hypertension which I take every night before bed. Can you suggest any medication or advice to help manage my high blood glucose levels? I'm starting to get a bit worried about it.
Fasting blood glucose should not exceed 100mgdl. The initial drug of choice for first line treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus is Metformin 500mg. However, in order to get a more comprehensive understanding of your condition, you should undergo a panel of tests including FBS, PPBS, HbA1C, and URE. This data will help to curate a more effective treatment plan for you. You should also look into lifestyle modifications such as diet control, regular exercise, stress management and cessation of smokingdrinking (if you are a smokerdrinker).
