I'm 18 and still don't have a mustache or beard. My face basically looks like a baby's, with no hair at all. Is there anything I can do to help encourage beard growth? It's kind of worrying me a bit.

One option you can consider is using Minoxidil solution. You can apply 2% Minoxidil solution on your face twice a day. Make sure to wash your face before applying and allow it to fully dry before applying the solution. Remember to be consistent with the application for best results. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet and managing stress levels can also support hair growth.

View allI'm a 22-year-old woman dealing with acanthosis nigricans and excess weight. I know losing weight will help fade the pigmentation, but I have important events coming up in a month and need a faster solution. Are there any effective bleaching creams, gels, or laser treatments that could quickly reduce the dark patches? It's really affecting my confidence.
For a quicker solution to acanthosis nigricans (AN) within a month, consider a combination of topical treatments and cosmetic procedures, along with maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Topical creams containing ingredients like retinoids, hydroquinone, or salicylic acid can help lighten the skin and improve texture. Chemical peels or laser therapy can also be used to improve the appearance of the dark patches. However, remember that weight loss and managing underlying causes are crucial for long-term improvement

I had minor skin surgery and my doctor recommended a CBP test. The results show my RBC and RDW are high while MCH, MCV, and MCHC are lower than normal. I don't have any concerning symptoms and consider myself healthy should I be worried about these results?
Your RBC and RDW being high, along with low MCH, MCV, and MCHC, might suggest some mild anemia or other factors affecting red blood cells. Since you're not experiencing symptoms, its likely not a serious concern, but it's a good idea to follow up with your haematologist to understand the context of these results.
