I'm 19 and I'm kinda worried because I still don't have any facial hair, like a moustache or beard. Could you tell me why this might be happening?

Im 23 and I've noticed I have white hair and some bald patches. I'm really hoping to regrow hair in these bald areas and also turn my white hair back to black. Do you think Indulekha hair oil could help with that? I'm pretty concerned about these changes at such a young age. What would you suggest?

Indulekha hair oil may help promote hair growth and reduce dandruff, but its effectiveness in regrowing hair on balding areas and reversing white hair to black is largely anecdotal and not scientifically proven; for noticeable results

I'm curious about why my hand palms have turned completely black. My overall health is fine and my skin is generally a yellow color, but this change in my palms has got me wondering what's going on. Could you help me understand the possible reasons?

Physician opinion is advised.

I'm really worried about my sister's skin. She's got a naturally dusky tone, but her job in sales means she's out in the field a lot, and it's made her skin even darker. I think it's because of increased melanin from all that sun exposure. Can you recommend any remedies to reduce the tanning and help get her skin back to its original color?

kindly consult dermatologist.
