Dear doctor,
A pregnant woman (6 months gestation) had an HbA1c level of 5. Fifteen days later, her fasting blood sugar was 89.5, and her 2-hour postprandial (PP) level was 161.5. Should she be started on medication for diabetes? Advice is needed.
I'm 31F, got diagnosed with type2 diabetes in last sep. I did my full body check up and have slightly high blood urea, bun, bilirubin total and bilirubin direct. Please suggest if it's a cause of concern. Attaching my report.
Latest hba1c is 5.6 and fbs is 100
Haemoglobin 10.9
Here attaching my sugar report as I have continuously pulling pain in left hand so done with sugar test as I am a diabetic patient awaiting for your reference

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
