I'm really starting to worry about my testosterone levels. They dropped from 270 ngdl to 208.83 ngdl in just two months, and I'm not on any medications or lacking vitamins like D or zinc. I've always felt like my hormones are low because I'm just never feeling healthy. With being a beta thalassemia minor, dealing with chronic back pain, low hemoglobin, weak bones, extra chest fat, and metabolic issues, it's a lot. Even a little extra oil or sugar messes with me, and I end up with painful acne. I often take doxycycline for that.

My mother is 65 and has a large, soft, painless lipoma in the middle of her upper stomach. It's been slowly growing, and since she also has diabetes, we're worried about surgery. Are there any permanent Ayurveda or homeopathy treatments that can dissolve the fatty lump from the root so it doesn't come back? We'd really prefer to avoid surgery.
The effectiveness of treatment depends on the specific condition and individual response. Some mild cases may improve with alternative therapies, but more serious issues might need conventional medical or surgical treatment. It's best to consult both specialists for a balanced approach.
