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.

I've been dealing with these lichen planus spots for a while now. Even after treatment, they seem to come back. I'm really looking for something that's a permanent fix. Could you help me find the best treatment that prevents them from regrowing? I'm starting to feel a bit frustrated with this cycle.

Lichen planus spots can be treated with topical corticosteroids such as Clobetasol cream applied twice daily for several weeks. In more severe cases, oral corticosteroids like Prednisone may be prescribed for a short period. For long-term management and prevention of regrowth, topical immunomodulators like Tacrolimus ointment can be used. Additionally, antihistamines like Loratadine can help with itching. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor the condition and adjust treatment as needed.

I'm considering using Calosoft lotion as a moisturizer but I'm not sure if it's good for skin, especially since I have acne scars. Also, I'm trying to avoid any products with steroids. Is it safe to use? Would love to hear your thoughts!

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.

I've been dealing with dark circles, wrinkles, and under-eye bags for the past two years, and I'm really concerned. My dermatologist recommended Elocon cream, but I know it's a steroid and it could have side effects. It works for a short time, but the dark patches come back quickly. Im starting to think maybe it's an allergy to dust mites. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

That could be due to Vitamin B deficiency, maintain balanced diet and healthy lifestyle with quality sleep,no need to worry you can use that cream, follow your doctor advice.
