I'm 19 years old and I've noticed I still don't have hair growing on my chest or a beard. I'm wondering if my puberty has ended or not. Also, is there a way to increase my penis size with any products from the market or through exercises? I'd appreciate your advice on this.

Delayed puberty is possible, and it's essential to consult an endocrinologist to assess your hormone levels and determine if your puberty is complete; regarding penis size, there's no scientific evidence supporting the effectiveness of market products or exercises in increasing size permanently; focus on a healthy lifestyle, and consider consulting a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian for personalized advice.

If you are experiencing allergic reactions to metformin, an alternative medication that can be considered is "Glipizide". The usual starting dose of Glipizide is 5 mg taken orally once daily. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.

I'm really anxious about my chest fat and it's starting to bother me a lot. Can you give me some advice on how to lose chest fat? I'm really concerned and would appreciate any suggestions you have.
One option for reducing chest fat is through regular exercise and a healthy diet. You can try incorporating cardiovascular exercises like running, swimming, or cycling to help burn overall body fat, including chest fat. Additionally, strength training exercises targeting the chest muscles, such as push-ups, chest presses, and dumbbell flyes, can help tone and define the chest area. It's also important to maintain a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Remember to stay hydrated and get an adequate amount of sleep for overall health and weight management.

I have a thyroid cyst on the right side of my neck that I can feel when I touch it. Is having a thyroid cyst the same as having hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism? Should I avoid foods that are bad for thyroid issues? If I need surgery, is it dangerous could it affect my voice or change how I sound? I'm really worried and not sure what to do.
A thyroid cyst is not the same as hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, though it can sometimes be associated with them. A thyroid cyst is a fluid-filled sac within the thyroid gland, while hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism are conditions related to the amount of thyroid hormone produced. Whether or not you need to avoid specific foods depends on whether your thyroid cyst is causing any hormonal imbalances.
