Question

I'm experiencing some male pattern hair loss around my temple area and forehead, and I'm really curious about what I can do about it. Have you found Procapil to be effective, or is Capixyl the better option in your experience?

For male pattern hair loss, particularly in the temple and frontal areas, consider using minoxidil (Rogaine) or finasteride (Propecia) as they are FDA-approved and clinically proven to promote hair growth and slow down hair loss; regarding Procapil and Capixyl, both are proprietary blends with some evidence suggesting their effectiveness in promoting hair growth, with Procapil possibly having a slight edge due to its combination of apoptosis-inhibiting and hair growth-promoting compounds, but consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.

Question

I'm dealing with this really annoying itching on my hands and other parts of my body. It seems to get worse both during the day and especially at night. I've tried using some English medicine, and it helps while I take it, but the itching comes right back when I stop. What could be causing this persistent itching, and what can I do to get some lasting relief? I'm starting to get really frustrated with it.

Question

I'm noticing these rashes popping up anywhere on my body, mainly in the morning and evening. Theyre itchy, red, and kind of rashy like pithi dafad, and they tend to disappear after a while. Should I be worried about this, or is it something common?
