  • Ushna Shah defends olympic athlete Imane Khelif amid testosterone controversy

    Ushna Shah defends olympic athlete Imane Khelif amid testosterone controversy

    Famous actress Ushna Shah has opened up about her struggle with high testosterone levels due to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).

    In Instagram posts and tweets, Ushna shared that she and many other women in Pakistan deal with PCOS, which causes high levels of the male hormone testosterone.

    Ushna’s honest talk brings attention to PCOS, a common but often misunderstood health issue. She pointed out that PCOS causes hormonal imbalances, leading to problems like extra body hair (hirsutism).

    Talking to her followers, Ushna said that high testosterone gives her stronger muscles and more energy. However, she made it clear that this does not make her any less female. She said that even with these hormonal changes, she is still fully feminine.

    Ushna’s comments challenge old views that link high testosterone with masculinity or a third gender.

    Her message is important, especially in light of recent events like the case of Algerian athlete Imane Khelif. Khelif qualified for the Paris Olympics and is set to compete in the finals. However, she faced controversy last year when she was disqualified by the International Boxing Federation due to an unspecified gender test. Even though the International Olympic Committee confirmed Khelif’s female gender, the Algerian has been attacked relentlessly by racists and transphobes, including JK Rowling and Elon Musk.

    Former Pakistan Tehreek Insaf (PTI) leader Asad Umar has been shifted to a hospital on Tuesday after he experienced pain in the chest while attending a hearing in an Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) in Lahore.

    Umar’s lawyer said his client felt chest pain in the courtroom, after which he was shifted to the hospital.

    Doctors conducted an ECG which turned out to be normal.

    Doctors determined that the former Finance Minister’s blood pressure dropped after he took hypertension medicine on an empty stomach, Geo News has said.

    On November 11, 2023, the ex-secretary general of PTI resigned from party membership and withdrew from politics, citing disagreement with the party’s aggressive approach towards state institutions.

    American flight makes emergency landing after lice spotted in woman’s hair

    A flight in America made an emergency landing after passengers spotted lice in a woman’s hair.

    The flight, scheduled to fly from Los Angeles to New York, was rerouted to Phoenix.

    A TikTok user on board, the flight, said in a video that passengers were left confused as American Airlines did not inform them of what caused the diversion.

    Ethan Judelson’s video reached over 1.2 million views. As soon as the plane landed, he described seeing a woman causing a commotion as she rushed through the aisle towards the front. While he was confused, no other passenger paid attention to it.

    “It just seemed like one of those people who, as soon as the seatbelt sign goes off, gets up and tries to be the first to their bag,” he told People magazine, recalling the incident. “So the girl next to me … we were both like, ‘Why is she so rushed to get off? We’re all getting off together; calm down.”

    The TikToker mentioned that two women gave him “cryptic” answers when asked about what happened to them.

    After the plane made the emergency landing, Mr Judelson overheard hushed conversations among fellow passengers. According to eyewitnesses, two passengers had spotted lice crawling out of a woman’s hair, prompting them to alert the flight attendants.

    “Apparently, those two girls saw bugs crawling out of the woman’s hair and alerted the flight attendant,” Mr Judelson said in the TikTok video.

    The airline later issued a statement confirming that the flight was diverted due to a medical emergency.
