I recommend trying Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) at a dosage of 150mg once a week for 4-6 weeks. Additionally, applying Clotrimazole cream (brand name Lotrimin) twice daily to the affected area can help in faster resolution of the infection. Remember to consult a doctor before starting any new medication.

Question

I'm experiencing a hair fall issue, and one of the doctors suggested I take Dutas capsules for 3 months. But I've read about some side effects, and they're mentioning that it could lead to impotence. Should I give it a try or not? I'm a bit confused and would really appreciate your advice.

Question

I've been using this bleaching cream called Oxy every month, and it gives me a fair look for just two days, then my skin goes back to normal. But now, after using bleach so much, my skin is starting to get darker, and I feel like I have to use bleach to make it better, which just seems to make it permanently darker. I'm really worried and curious if bleach cream is actually safe to use. Does it actually help? And since my skin's getting darker from it, what can I do to avoid this or make it better? Any advice on creams or tablets would be really appreciated.

Question

I'm wondering if masturbating once a week could be affecting my skin health. I've been dealing with acne issues and trying to figure out what's going on. Could these things be related?
