Hormonal Imbalances
My sugar is not under control
Hello Doctor Good morning
I am diabetic since 6/7 years,normaly my sugar was always under control around 110/140. But now from last 5/6 months it is high fasting around 200 /pp around 275.
Now medicines doses also increased by my doctor.
Janumet 50/500-twice a day
Glimpiride 2mg
Gliclazide-60mg
(metformin-500mg by other doctor)
Still sugar is 200/275
HBA 1c is 8.1 3 months back,now in July 2020 it is 7.9
This ratio is after doing daily 1 hour excercise/walking/yoga.
I have two queries..
My one government doctor is saying to take Janumet 50/500 and Glimpiride 2mg in the morning both all together. And at night after dinner only Metformin 500mg.
Another one advised me to take Janumet 50/500one morning and one evening.
And Gliclazide -60mg in the evening.(not prescribed Metformin at evening)
My sugar is not controlled, please advise me how to take dose and how it will be under control.
Best Regards

High blood sugar not decreasing
My mother has been a diabetic (type 2) since her thirties. Two days ago, she tested her blood sugar (post meal) which came to be 400. The next morning we tested her fasting blood sugar levels which were 250. Then, today, 3-4 hours after meal another test was done which showed her blood sugar to be 340. Why are her blood sugar levels not going down? And what can be done to optimize it because 400 is too high. She's currently taking Janumet 50/1000 and Cetapin XR.
Please help.

Unblock androgen receptors
I was taking finasteride for 8 years with minoxidil for hair loss treatment.
Now I found finasteride was a dht blocker.
My testosterone is normal.
I am pretty sure that my androgen receptor are poor because of continuous dht blockers.
My T4, Total, Serum is 11.99 on a scale of 5.74-13.03
Testosterone, total is 531.61 ng/dl on a scale of 185-781.
My TSH is 1.98 uIU/ml on a scale of 0.35-5.50.
I need beard and body hair and breaking of voice (masculine characteristics) as these all are hindered because of finasteride and I guess for these I need medicine to improve the androgen receptor in a controlled manner.
Whom to consult for such medication and controlled treatment.
@Endocrinologists, Can it be fixed with medication or may be some hormonal therapy?
Please throw some light of your experiences on this particular issue.
Thanks in advance
