Just like a system needs adequate space to operate efficiently, the heart needs care, movement and mindful habits to stay healthy.
Regular activity and balanced living help keep your heart in check. Fortis urges everyone to .

Dr. Hrishikesh Salgaonkar, a Consultant Bariatric, Metabolic, and Robotic and Minimally Invasive Surgeon at Fortis Hospital, Mulund, explains how weight loss surgery acts as a powerful metabolic intervention. For patients who have been living with Type 2 Diabetes for less than ten years, bariatric surgery offers a 50-60% chance of complete clinical remission. Even for those who don't achieve full remission, almost every patient experiences a significant reduction in their dependency on daily medications and insulin. This procedure resets the body’s insulin sensitivity, helping the pancreas function more effectively.

Beyond just lowering blood sugar, this "metabolic reset" helps prevent the long-term complications of diabetes, such as kidney damage and nerve issues. Dr. Salgaonkar emphasizes that by addressing the root hormonal imbalances caused by obesity, surgery provides a long-term solution that traditional dieting often cannot sustain. It is a life-changing step for those looking to reclaim their health from chronic metabolic disease. This transition allows patients to lead a life focused on wellness rather than constant glucose monitoring and medication cycles.

Dr. Sonal Kumta, Senior Consultant in Obstetrics & Gynaecology at Fortis Hospital, Mulund, breaks down exactly how age impacts a woman's fertility. Many wonder what biological shifts occur once they cross their early thirties. Biologically speaking, the best decade to plan a pregnancy is between the ages of 25 and 35.

Understanding your biological clock is a vital part of making informed decisions about family planning. Many women wonder why their late twenties and early thirties are emphasized so heavily by medical professionals. The reality is that the reproductive system operates on a strict timeline where the biological prime falls between 25 and 35 years of age.
To give you a clearer picture of these internal changes, here is a breakdown of what exactly happens to your natural fertility as you reach your mid-thirties:

Women are born with ovaries that hold a specific, limited number of eggs.
This egg reserve begins to actively reduce and deplete after the age of 35.
As the egg count drops, AMH (Anti-Mullerian Hormone) levels also start falling.
Consequently, a woman's chances of conceiving naturally without medical treatment reduce significantly after 35.
Because of these biological factors, doctors advise planning your pregnancy as early as possible.

Dr. Saurabh Ramesh Patil, Senior Consultant in Urology and Uro-oncology at Fortis Hospital, Mulund, addresses a major concern for kidney cancer patients regarding the safety of partial nephrectomy. When diagnosed, many individuals wonder if removing only a section of the kidney is as secure and effective as taking out the entire organ. Dr. Patil confirms that partial nephrectomy is a highly safe procedure that delivers excellent oncological results for patients.

This specific surgical technique focuses on extracting the tumor while leaving the rest of the kidney intact to maintain its normal, everyday function. By prioritizing organ preservation, the surgery successfully treats the cancer while actively keeping post-operative risks incredibly low.

Here is a closer look at why this procedure is considered both safe and highly effective:
- Partial nephrectomy is a proven, safe procedure offering strong oncological results.
- The level of cancer control achieved with this preserving surgery is almost 100%.
- During the operation, surgeons remove the tumor along with a very small rim of surrounding kidney tissue.
- The main goal is to successfully preserve the maximum amount of healthy kidney tissue possible.
- Using a robotic approach for this surgery vastly improves precision and lowers risks.
- The high precision of robotic surgery minimizes complications like blood loss and the chances of urine leakage.

Dr. Amol Akhade, Senior Consultant Medical Oncologist at Fortis Hospital in Mulund, addresses a common question among cancer patients: why might an oncologist ask for further treatment even after a scan comes back normal?. He explains that while getting a clear scan at the end of a treatment cycle is a highly positive milestone, it does not always mean the medical journey is entirely complete.

Achieving a normal scan at the end of your initial treatment is a fantastic outcome that doctors are very happy to see.
Oncologists frequently use a PET scan, which is currently the most sensitive imaging tool available for detecting small disease entities.
While a negative result on a PET scan is a highly encouraging sign, it does not guarantee that there is absolutely no residual disease left in the body.
Even highly advanced tools like the PET scan have their own technological limitations when it comes to detecting microscopic cancer cells.
Because of these limitations, unseen residual disease can still be present despite a completely clear image.

Because of these imaging limitations, oncologists may still advise additional therapies to ensure that any undetected cancer cells are fully managed. Understanding that a clear scan is a great step forward—but not necessarily the final step—helps patients stay prepared and committed to their comprehensive treatment plan.
