Question

I'm really worried about my penis; there's this redness on the forehead of the skin and some small red bumps on the side. There's no itching or fluid, but it burns and irritates. I've been using Candida B, Onbet, and T Bact ointments and have tried various creams, but nothing seems to help. My skin is scratching and there's a red rash. What should I do?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

Question

I'm a 28-year-old woman and I'm getting married in three months. Recently, my dermatologist recommended using minoxidil 5 for my hair fall since the minoxidil 2 I tried earlier didn't really help much. However, when I read up on it, it seems like minoxidil 5 is usually for men, and this has me a bit worried. I'm concerned about how this might affect my hair and if there's any impact on my marriage or sex life. Can I go ahead with using this?
