View allI've noticed a white formation around my penis that's really irritating and makes me want to scratch. When I take a bath, the white stuff goes away and my skin is actually black. What could this be? It's starting to worry me, and I'm not sure if it's something I should be concerned about or if there's a way to treat it. Any advice would be really helpful.

I've been using Tugain 5 for a while, but my doctor recently switched me to Minokem F 5. After trying it for about two months, I'm noticing a big increase in hair fall. Im kind of worried and wondering if anyone has any suggestions or ideas about what might be going on, especially since getting an appointment with my doctor isnt that easy right now.
It seems like you may be experiencing a side effect from the new medication. I would recommend discussing this with your doctor to explore other treatment options. In the meantime, you can consider using Minoxidil solution (brand name: Rogaine) as an alternative for hair loss treatment. Apply 1mL of Rogaine solution twice daily on the scalp to promote hair growth.
