I'm 23 and I've been dealing with a receding hairline and thinning hair. I've been taking Androanagen tablets daily for the past six months. Should I keep taking them? And what happens if I stop; will my hair fall get worse? I've noticed some improvement since I started them, but I'm kind of anxious about what could happen if I make any changes. Any advice?

Since you have noticed some improvement in your condition after starting Androanagen, it is advisable to continue taking it as prescribed by your healthcare provider. If you stop taking Androanagen abruptly, there is a possibility that your hair fall may increase again. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations regarding the duration of treatment with Androanagen to maintain the benefits you have observed.

View allI've been dealing with some psychological issues recently and ended up with several blade cuts on my leg. Things are better now, but the cuts left a lot of marks. The scars aren't too deep since the blades only grazed the outer layer, but multiple cuts caused quite a noticeable scar. I'm looking for some advice on which ointment might help peel off dead skin and promote fresh skin growth. My skin's become extremely dry around those marks too. Could you suggest something that might help me with this issue?

I'm really struggling with excessive dandruff that's been troubling me for the past 10 years. I recently visited a doctor in Bangalore and was told I have seborrheic dermatitis, but they mentioned it's incurable. I've tried using noskurf lotion and a shampoo from Cipla that was recommended, but unfortunately, I'm not seeing any improvement. I'm just wondering if you could suggest a good doctor in Bangalore or share some tips that might help with this issue?
In addition to using the Noskurf lotion and Cipla shampoo as prescribed by your doctor, you can also try the following tips to help control your condition: Use a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole (such as Nizoral shampoo) at least twice a week. Wash your hair regularly to prevent oil buildup on your scalp. Avoid using hair products that can irritate the scalp, such as gels and mousses. Manage stress levels, as stress can exacerbate seborrheic dermatitis. - Eat a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals to support overall skin health.
