I'm diabetic and have been for about 45 months. My latest HBA1C reading came back as 5.6, and I'm trying to understand what that really means. Also, I noticed my mean blood glucose level is 122 mgdL. Could you explain if that's considered normal or not? I'm a bit concerned and would love some clarity.

normal hba1c is 5.6 and if your fasting is 122mgdl then it comes under pre diabetic range

I've noticed that every time I masturbate, my butt seems to be getting bigger. It's really bothering me because I feel like I'm gaining weight because of it. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do about it? I'm feeling pretty worried and would love some advice.
Masturbation itself doesn't directly cause weight gain or increase buttock size
