I'm 22 and I've been losing hair really suddenly. There's no genetic issue that I know of since my dad only started losing his hair after he turned 45. I've noticed it's mostly around the center line of my head with a big space in the middle. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

View allI'm a 21-year-old male and I've noticed something weird lately. When I used to masturbate, I could really feel the sensation around my penis, but now it seems like the sensitivity has decreased and I'm not enjoying it the same way. Is this something I should be worried about? If it is, do you have any suggestions on what I can do?
educed penis sensitivity can be a concern. Here are some possible reasons and suggestions: *Possible Reasons* 1. *Over-masturbation*: Frequent masturbation can lead to desensitization. 2. *Poor masturbation technique*: Aggressive or rough handling can cause nerve damage. 3. *Circumcision or foreskin issues*: Circumcision, foreskin tightness, or foreskin irritation can reduce sensitivity. 4. *Neurological issues*: Conditions like neuropathy, diabetes, or multiple sclerosis can affect nerve sensitivity. 5. *Psychological factors*: Stress, anxiety, or performance anxiety can contribute to reduced sensitivity. *Measures to Improve Sensitivity* 1. *Take breaks from masturbation*: Give your penis time to recover and regain sensitivity. 2. *Practice gentle masturbation techniques*: Use lubricants and gentle strokes to reduce friction and irritation. 3. *Forearm exercises*: Strengthen your forearm muscles to improve blood flow and sensitivity. 4. *Sensate focus exercises*: Practice mindfulness and focus on sensations during masturbation to increase awareness and sensitivity.

I've been dealing with acne scars and I'm breastfeeding my 5-month-old baby. I'm thinking about using tretinoin tretin 0.05% cream on my face to help with the scars and acne, but I'm really worried if this could affect my baby through breastfeeding. Is it safe for me to use this cream or should I avoid it while I'm nursing? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.
While tretinoin (Tretin 0.05%) is effective for acne and scars, it's not recommended for breastfeeding mothers, as it's a topical retinoid that can be absorbed into the bloodstream and potentially pass into breast milk, posing a risk to your 5-month-old baby; instead, consider alternative treatments, such as azelaic acid, salicylic acid, or glycolic acid, and consult your doctor or a dermatologist for personalized advice.

I've noticed that my armpits have turned dark and patchy, and there's a bit of swelling too. It gets itchy, especially when I sweat. I don't put deodorant directly on my skin. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?
Melacure cream for local application for atleast 3-6 weeks is advised to the patient, as it is economical.
