I have a black mole on my face and I really want to get rid of it but I'm scared of surgery. Are there any other treatments that can remove it safely? What options do I have?

I've always had really thick, full hair, but lately, I've been losing a lot of it, and thats never happened to me before. My hairline has receded by about 5cm, and my hair seems to be getting thinner and weaker every day. Could you help me figure out what's going on and what I can do about it?

it sounds like you may be experiencing male pattern baldness. I recommend using minoxidil solution 5% twice daily on the affected areas of the scalp. Additionally, taking finasteride 1mg tablet once daily can help slow down hair loss and promote hair regrowth. It's important to be consistent with these treatments to see results.

I'm dealing with an infection in my private area since last July. I've tried different treatments, but there's always a small patch that never fully heals, and then another one appears. I've used plenty of medicines and creams, but the issue just won't go away. Any advice on what I should do next?

When scheduled for a thyroid function test (TFT), it's recommended to withhold Thyronorm (levothyroxine) for 24-48 hours before the blood test. Taking Thyronorm on the day of the test may affect the accuracy of the results, particularly the TSH levels. Stop Thyronorm 24-48 hours prior to the test. Consult your doctor or endocrinologist for personalized advice. Follow instructions to ensure accurate test results. Reschedule the test if you've taken Thyronorm on the same day
