Question

I'm 22 and I've been dealing with hair loss and thinning for quite a few years now. I've tried a bunch of medications but they just haven't worked for me. Recently, I've noticed that the density of my hair seems to have really decreased, especially in the front and sides of my head. I don't have any medical conditions like thyroid issues or anything like that. Can you suggest some natural and medical ways to address this?

I'm trying to figure out if Uv doux silicon sunscreen gel with SPF 50 would be okay for my oily, acne-prone, and sensitive skin. Do I need to put a moisturizer on before applying it, or is it alright to use directly?

Question

I've been dealing with a really red and irritated rash along my mustache line, and it's super dry and itchy. Recently, I also noticed a lump on the right side of my jaw, and I can't figure out why it's there. Plus, my acne seems to be getting worse. I've been using moisturizer and washing my face with 10% benzoyl peroxide, but I've avoided using it in the rashy area for months. I first noticed the dryness and flakiness around the start of the year. Any idea what's going on or what I should do?

Question

I've been dealing with typhoid and according to my CBC report, my platelets are low. For a few months now, I've been experiencing a lot of hair loss. My doctor suggested taking biotin 5 mg for a month, but it hasn't helped. Could there be something else causing this or any other suggestions you might have?
