no need to worry ,low dose of steroids wont affect any organ,use those prescribed drugs for a period prescribed by your doctor and there is no such relation of these drugs on sperm count.

Question

Why does my hair get greasy so fast?

Question

I'm really worried because my face has gotten darker since I delivered my baby. The doctor once mentioned that it might be due to the folic acid tablets I was taking. But now it's been over three years, and my face keeps getting darker while the rest of my body remains the same as before I gave birth. There's such a noticeable difference between my face and body color, and it's really concerning me. Could you please help me understand what's going on and what I might be able to do about this?
