View allI'm really worried because my blood sugar is higher than it's ever been. I'm already on BP meds and I'm overweight. Should I think about starting medication for my sugar levels now? Is it even possible to get my levels back to normal at this point?
It's most likely diabetes and you should start medicines for the same. Better to confirm the sugar levels once again before starting medicines.

My wife's prolactin level is 140 and we have an MRI scan showing a microadenoma in the pituitary gland. The doctor recommended cabergoline to control prolactin but I'm worried is this tumor serious and should we consider surgery? What are our next steps?

I was born with gender dysphoria and feel a lot of internal distress about it. I'm considering male-to-female surgery but I'm not sure what hormone medications I need to take before the procedure. Can you explain what's usually prescribed and how they work?
Pre-operative hormone therapy for gender affirmation (M‚ÜíF) includes estrogen and anti-androgens (e.g., spironolactone).Consult trans-health endocrinologist to start.
