Question

I've been dealing with hair loss since 2015 and had been using minoxidil 5% for over a year. I stopped using it about 6 months ago but started again a month ago and I think the shedding phase is done. I saw a trichologist who recommended Xfolia hair gain serum and hairgain pills since I'm in a type 3 pattern. Have you heard of this Xfolia stuff? How long does it usually take to see results with this kind of treatment, because I couldn't find any info about it online?

Question

I'm dealing with a lot of sexual health issues, like redness and patches on the foreskin and tip of my penis for the last two years. I've tried both generic and homeopathy tablets, and while there were some small improvements with the homeopathy tablets, the redness and patches keep coming back. I've also used Clop G cream, but it hasn't helped. This all started about three years ago after a sexual encounter. The skin on the right side of my penis broke, it healed with tablets back then, but about a year later, this ongoing issue began. There hasn't been any change for the past two years. Can you give me some advice or solutions for this problem? I'm really concerned and would appreciate any guidance you can offer.

Question

I'm looking for an alternative cream for treating inflammatory skin infections like eczema, especially when there's a fungal or bacterial aspect involved. I've been using Lymarin cream, but I'm not sure if it's available or effective here in India. Any suggestions?

Question
