I'm trying to figure out what would be the best option for my hair loss due to androgenetic alopecia. Should I go with Tugain Minoxidil 5 Solution, Morr F tropical solution, or is follihair serum a better choice? It's getting a bit concerning and I want to make sure I'm using the right product. Any guidance on this would be really appreciated.

Tugain Minoxidil 5% Solution contains minoxidil, a vasodilator that activates hair follicles and increases blood supply. It's available in 5% and 10% concentrations, with the 10% solution being more effective for grade three and four hair loss. Morr F tropical solution contains finasteride, which, when combined with minoxidil, can enhance hair growth. Some dermatologists recommend Morr F as a better option due to its added finasteride content. Follihair serum is another option, but its effectiveness compared to Tugain and Morr F is less documented.

I'm really worried about my friend who keeps getting ringworm over and over. She gets better after treatment, but then a few months later, it pops up again. Is this something serious, or does it mean something else might be going on? The doctor mentioned coming back if it happens again, do you think she should make another appointment? What steps should she take to finally get rid of it for good?
