Asked for female, 26 years old from Ghaziabad

I am 25 years old female. I have had acne since a long time almost 11-12 years I have used everything from homeopathy to ayurved to allopathy ,unani. I used accutane as well I cured my acne but after the treatment was over my acne came back. I git my blood tested and my testosterone levels were very high and then I was diagnosed with pcod. My Dr. gave me hormones and finast ,spironolactone, metformin etc I was good while on the medicine I got my ultrasound done after an year and there were no cysts at all I was advised to stop the treatment and so I did but after an year or so I was back to acne but only before or after the days I menstruated. Now at present I am not taking any medicines if I get a pimple here and there I use either benzoyl or retino it helps. But its been a month and I am getting big painful pimples on my jaw area and even between my brows and cheeks they are stubborn I even took doxycycline 100 but no use. P.S. I am a dentist so I do know about medicines that I took. But can you please suggest me as to what should I do I am already fed up of my face.

Old hairs do not go away without special treatment from cosmetologist or beauty parlour.
Pcod is a disease where there is a hormonal imbalance. Depending on your complaints, examination, reports, and stage of life treatment differs, and it also needs more time to get yourself treated with patience. Meet gynecologist in whom you have trust as you will need to go for a long time to him/her. Overweight is very common so in case you have that reduction of weight helps tremendously.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Both Diane35 & Spironolactone are used in the treatment of PCOD to reduce the symptoms. Prolactin also is reduced because of Spironolactone.
Please mention the prolactin levels, because if those are abnormally high, some additional drug maybe needed. Thanks .

Asked for male, 56 years old from Kota

I was diagnosed with dm 2 about two years back. Iam on amaryl-m1 bd & has hba1c of 7. I started feeling extra sensation under the feet, heaviness in foot, leg, thighs from about a month or two, some pain in hip area and finally difficulty in lifting one leg about 2 weeks days back along with knee weakness in one leg although other leg has been affected to a lesser extent till date. I never experienced very sharp pain & 2 weeks back had mild pain in my buttocks for about a week. The loss of movement in the 2 directions direction in the leg & knee weakness was quite quick about 10-12 days back. Now I do not feel any pain but had some falls primarily on account of knee weakness or weakness in right leg. Mri scan, ct scan were ok but problem was reported in nerve conduction test in both legs but mainly in right leg. Was diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy or diabetic amyotrophy which correlates with my overall symptoms. Doctor put me on 8 day course of prednisone (40mg-10mg) with insulin. My sugar with amaryl m1 as on now is under control & I take light food with reasonable physical activity & sugar levels now seems to be ok 92 fasting /140 pp. Also started visiting a physiotherapist from today. As of know there is appears to be some improvements in my walking (can walk 15-20 min at a stretch inside home) though weakness in one leg & knee persist. I cannot drive due to difficulty in movement of my right leg when trying to move it sideways while sitting. It is also not possible to lift the right leg against gravity when laying down though backward lifting & movement on sideways when lying on one side are intact. Have been prescribed pregaba m 75 (hs, neurkind+. Have no pain of any type. My questions 1) has peripheral neuropathy reached a plateau ie. Stopped or not 2) is pregabalin needed in my case as I have no pain, i. E. Whether it play a role in nerve regeneration or is overall beneficial in such situation 3) can I expect improvement in my right leg in 1-2 months time with sugar control & exercises.

1. Peripheral neuropathy is a on going process even in normal individuvals as age advances due to deficiency of vitamins mainly b12
2. In your case pregabalin is needed for some time 3. Nerve regeneration is impossible for anyone 4. Definitely you can expect improvement in the right leg in 1-2 months with good control of sugar & exercises.
