I'm 17 and dealing with some major hair fall issues. It's got me a bit worried. I've already seen a doctor, and they suggested some oil and ayurvedic medicine. I'm just wondering if there's anything else I could be doing to help stop it. Is there something specific I should look out for or any other advice you might have?

Ever since I used Veet hair removal cream on my bikini area a few weeks back, my vagina's been feeling really inflamed and irritated. Things improved a bit once the hair grew back, but now I'm still super itchy around the outer labia at night, even though everything seems normal during the day with no weird discharge. I'm trying hard not to scratch so I don't make it worse, but it's really messing with my sleep. What should I do?

Lulican cream for local application for 2 weeks and tab levocetrizine 10 mg for atleast 5 days is advised to the patient.
