Breast enlargement in a male patient?👨‍⚕️

Hormonal imbalance? ❌
New illness? ❌
Antihypertensive? ✅

A 40 year old male on antihypertensives developed breast enlargement and pain on touch.

The likely cause? ➡️ Spironolactone.

⚠️ This potassium-sparing diuretic is effective in hypertension, but one of its important side effects is male gynecomastia.

💡Clinical Insight:
Spironolactone blocks androgen receptors and increases estrogen activity, leading to breast tissue enlargement in males.

What do you think could be the likely cause of this condition? Comment below!👇🏻

👁️ Ozempic & Vision Loss — What You Need to Know! ⚠️
Ozempic (Semaglutide), widely used for type 2 diabetes and weight loss, is now under the spotlight for its potential link to serious eye complications, including vision loss and optic nerve damage (NAION).

🧠 Studies published in JAMA Ophthalmology and the National Library of Medicine reveal higher reports of vision impairment in patients using Semaglutide compared to other GLP-1 agonists.
Possible mechanisms? 👇

Reduced blood flow to the optic nerve due to dehydration or low BP

Direct GLP-1 effects on nerve and vascular health

💊 While Ozempic remains effective for blood sugar control and weight management, awareness is key! Patients experiencing blurred vision, eye pain, or sudden sight loss should seek medical attention immediately.

👩‍⚕️ Always discuss risks and benefits with your healthcare provider before starting any GLP-1 therapy.

Fatigue at 60? The hidden culprit might surprise you… 💉👩‍⚕️

A 60-year-old patient came in with persistent fatigue, weakness, and low energy levels. After clinical evaluation, the diagnosis was Iron Deficiency — one of the most common yet underdiagnosed causes of fatigue, especially in women and older adults.

🔑 Treatment Recommendation:
The first-line therapy is Ferrous Sulfate 325 mg, taken 2–3 times daily, which helps restore hemoglobin and replenish iron stores. Alongside, dietary modifications like including leafy greens, red meat, beans, and vitamin C-rich foods can further enhance iron absorption.

💡 Why this matters:
Iron deficiency can often be mistaken for “just aging,” but timely diagnosis and proper treatment can completely transform a patient’s quality of life.

👉 Always consult a healthcare professional before starting supplements.
