I shaved my head and noticed some white patches on my scalp. The skin seems normal without any crusting, and I don't feel any itching or pain. These spots just look like they've lost their color. There's no hair loss or discoloration in the hair itself. Could this possibly be vitiligo?

I'm a bit worried about my health because I've been shaking my penis every day. I've noticed I'm not feeling as good as I used to. Could this be causing my health issues? And if so, how can I stop this habit?

Shaking or overstimulating the penis frequently can lead to soreness, fatigue, and reduced energy, potentially affecting overall health if excessive. Try to reduce the frequency gradually and engage in other activities like exercise or hobbies to manage urges. If it's difficult to control, consider talking to a psychologist for additional support.

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'm really worried because after my second PRP treatment, I'm experiencing a lot more hair fall than after the first session. The hair fall after the first session seemed normal and even slowed down a lot after about 15 days, but this time it's pretty serious. I'm not using minoxidil or finasteride. Is this kind of hair shedding normal after PRP treatments? Should I be concerned?

After undergoing PRP treatment, it is normal to experience some hair shedding as part of the hair growth cycle. However, experiencing a sudden increase in hair fall after the second sitting can be concerning. It is important to monitor this closely and discuss it with your healthcare provider. In the meantime, you can consider using a gentle hair care routine and incorporating a hair growth promoting shampoo containing minoxidil and finasteride. Additionally, you may benefit from using a supplement like biotin to support hair health. If the hair fall persists or worsens, it is advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
