Hello Doctor,
I am a 25-year-old male with a height of 163 cm and current weight of 95 kg. Around September 2025, I weighed 92 kg, but despite consistent gym training (primarily strength training), my weight has increased slightly. My estimated body fat is around 32–34%.
I have developed good strength (I can squat ~160 kg), and I believe I have gained muscle, but it is not visible due to higher body fat. My main challenge is controlling hunger and maintaining a calorie deficit, even though I train regularly and consume around 100 grams of protein daily.
I wanted to ask whether a medication like Semaglutide would be appropriate in my case to help control appetite and support fat loss.
Could you please guide me on:
1. Whether I am a suitable candidate for this medication
2. Potential risks or side effects considering my profile
3. Whether lifestyle changes alone would be preferable before starting medication
4. Any tests or evaluations required before considering this option
Thank
I am feeling tightness of left temple, eye, and neck muscle, dizzy when hungry (before I eat). Now a days feeling mild headache, heavy eyes after eating rice, idli etc. and feeling dull upto 2 hours. I mean before eating and after eating I feel cloudy and unable to concentrate on anything.
My blood sugar in the fasting 5.1mM, after eating 7.5mM, and after 3 hours 4.1mM.
Is it only a sugar level issue or any other test need to be done? Please suggest. I visited many doctors but it was not clear.
For muscle tightness and cloudy, headaches - please suggest
My TSH levels decreased from 2.5 to 0.17
With 100 mcg dosage as am not feeling gud
Does the dose need to be adjusted
I mean reduced
Pls suggest

“My father is diabetic. He is on medication. After 3 months, his test results showed fasting 230 and PP 300. I have shared the medicines he is taking. What should be done now?”
Hello doctor
I have just got my random blood sugar test done and the range is very high 375. My HBA1C levels are currently at 8.9. I just had c section delivery 3 months back and did not have any high blood sugar issues then. I do not want to take in insulin. What medicines can i take safely to reduce blood sugar while breastfeeding?
