I'm wondering about the FAS 3 kit instructions. Is it supposed to be taken once a week? And does that mean it's a two-week course, like you take one kit on one day this week and then another the next week? Or is just one kit enough for the whole course?

FAS 3 kit is typically taken as a single dose. The kit contains multiple tablets that are meant to be taken all at once, not spread out over multiple weeks. So, one kit is usually enough to complete the course of treatment.

I've been using mx2 solution and Hairgro serum on and off for a year, and they worked well for a while. But recently, I've noticed a lot of hair loss again over the past couple of months. Could the medication be causing this? Should I stop using it? And do you think it'll get worse if I stop?

I've been dealing with this issue where about a year ago, I noticed two small dark red blisters on the glans of my penis. They weren't painful and I barely noticed them at first, but now it's turned into something like a small wound that's slightly itchy and red. Ive tried a few things, but nothing seems to help. I'm really worried about why it hasn't healed yet, so could you help me figure out whats going on?

While the exact cause of psoriasis remains elusive, it is clear that multiple factors—genetic, immune, and environmental—interact in a complex way to trigger the disease.
