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
For the last few months my blood glucose level has been higher than normal at 135 during FBS. Any recommendations or suggestions would be helpful.
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
Hi Doctor, i have some Balanitis symptoms on my penis foreskin, Will you please check attached image and confirm? 1st image is of my penis normal look in flaccid state and foreskin not cover glans in flaccid state also. So today while retracting my foreskin more back i found my outermost foreskin tip sticked to the shaft through some swelling as seen in 2nd attached image. Maybe due to this reason my foreskin is not coming over glans again. Is this a symptom of Balanitis. I also cleared smegma deposited there from so many years which i didn't know to clean it regularly.
