I'm a 23-year-old woman, and my dermatologist recommended Keraglo Men for me. I'm a bit concerned, is it safe for me to use it since it's labeled "Men"?

Keraglo Men is a supplement specifically formulated for men's hair and skin health, containing ingredients like biotin, keratin, and saw palmetto. While the ingredients are generally safe, there are some considerations for a 23-year-old female: Hormonal considerations: Saw palmetto, in particular, may affect hormone levels, which could be a concern for women, especially those with hormonal imbalances or taking birth control. Pregnancy and breastfeeding: If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, it's essential to exercise caution when taking any supplement, as some ingredients may pass into breast milk or affect fetal development.

I'm really worried about this rash I've been dealing with. It started around my panty line and under my bust. I used a skin cream that my doctor recommended, and it seemed to help, but then the rash came back. Now my skin looks like it's healing from a burn. It's been going on for three months now. What should I do?

Since you have been suffering for 3 months, it is important to consider a different approach. This sounds like a case of fungal infection, possibly a persistent one. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream twice daily on the affected areas for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, taking oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks can also help clear the infection completely. Make sure to keep the affected areas clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing to aid in the healing process.
