I'm a 23-year-old girl, and I've been on mDR TB medication for the past 10 months. I've lost about 90% of my hair, and I'm really worried. Will my hair grow back after I'm done with the medication? Can I regain my hair? I'm feeling really depressed about this.

yes hair loss can be due to drugs. MDR TB drugs can be a cause of it. and tuberculosis disease can also be a cause of hair loss. you can take supplement for the hair. generally they regrow. consult your dermatologist for further help.

Question

I've been having these painful phora and funsi around my hydrosil and it's really bothering me. I'm looking for some advice or medication that could help with this. Any suggestions?

I'm dealing with a lot of acne after getting my face threaded, and my doctor put me on Minoz OD and Avene Triacneal cream for 10 days. The thing is, my acne's actually getting worse, and the scars look more noticeable. I thought the cream would make it peel, but it's just drying it out, and I'm not seeing any peeling even after 10 days. I'm wondering how long I'm supposed to keep using this stuff before I see any results? Why am I ending up with new pimples every day? Could it be the treatment or just a coincidence? Ive never had this many pimples on my face before. What should I do? Any insights on how long it usually takes for acne to fade with these treatments?

I'm a 31-year-old guy dealing with male hereditary baldness. My doctor prescribed Finax for it, but I'm a bit uncertain about which brand of 1 mg Finax tablets would be the best choice. Any advice would be really helpful!
