I'm a 23-year-old woman, and my dermatologist recommended Keraglo Men for me. I'm a bit concerned, is it safe for me to use it since it's labeled "Men"?

Keraglo Men is a supplement specifically formulated for men's hair and skin health, containing ingredients like biotin, keratin, and saw palmetto. While the ingredients are generally safe, there are some considerations for a 23-year-old female:
Hormonal considerations: Saw palmetto, in particular, may affect hormone levels, which could be a concern for women, especially those with hormonal imbalances or taking birth control.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding: If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, it's essential to exercise caution when taking any supplement, as some ingredients may pass into breast milk or affect fetal development.

I've been dealing with these really itchy scalp bumps for the past couple of months, and it's getting pretty unbearable. Sometimes, my scalp also flakes off in these dry little crumbs. It all started when I switched from a keto diet to a regular diet and noticed it got really hot and humid around the same time. I've tried everythingdandruff shampoos, hemp oil, apple cider vinegar rinses, tea tree oil, and organic shampoos. I've even played around with washing my hair more and less often, but nothing seems to work. What could be causing this, and what else can I do to make it stop?
You may be experiencing a condition called seborrheic dermatitis, which is a common skin condition that mainly affects your scalp. The symptoms you described, such as itchy bumps, flaking skin, and bleedingscabbing from scratching, are characteristic of seborrheic dermatitis. The change in diet and weather conditions may have triggered or worsened the condition. I recommend using an anti-fungal shampoo containing ketoconazole, such as Nizoral. You can use it 2-3 times a week for a few weeks to help control the itching and flaking. Additionally, a corticosteroid lotion or foam, like Clobex, can be applied to the affected areas to reduce inflammation and itching. It is important to follow the instructions provided with these medications and consult with a healthcare provider if the symptoms persist or worsen.
