Naturally High Testosterone causes water retention?
I have had oily skin since I was a kid, I am now 38 years old. I have been having outbreaks of acne since I was young. I got my hormones tested today and my testosterone is very high, I am not taking supplements or any weird stuff. Could this explain my water retention? (its listed as a side effect

how to test levels of vitamins, etc.
Does anybody know what vitamins, etc., (i.e., folic acid, B vitamins, magnesium, etc.) we need to have our doctor test to see if it is normal or if it is low and we need to supplement by taking it orally? If so, how much or what level should we aim for to help our RLS?

Hello everyone, thank you for having me.
I have been diagnosed 17 years ago. I have been in denial the whole time. Even though I was on insulin x2 with pregnancy. Am still on medication. I find it hard to accept I am diabetic and mostly forget.

I do have an ongoing bladder infection, which I have had 3 courses of antibiotics for and still not cured. I have managed to lose 3 stone

FOLIC ACID
I was told that B12 injections would not be effective if B9 was not supplemented? I was advised to take 5 milligrams of folic acid supplement daily by the NHS consultant treating my pernicious anaemia and is prescribed by my GP. NHS says. Folic acid is generally very safe. Taking too much is unlikely

According to this data, richer countries have more occurrences of PD. Is this due to toxic pollution or lack of diagnosis capability?
With the exception of Russian and China this data clearly shows that the more industrialized and the richer the country's economy is, the higher the cases and occurrences of Parkinson's disease (To put the data in perspective IMHO, the exception of Russian and China is no surprise as there might be so

Needle size
I use a 25 gauge by 1 inch length. I also use the union medico injector device made in Denmark. It has helped to greatly reduce the anxiety and pain of self-injecting. https://unionmedico.com/product/super-grip/
