I'm 25 and I've been losing hair from the front and back. My hairline is almost gone. Is there any way I can get my hair back?

I understand your concern about hair loss.

There are several factors that contribute to hair loss, including:

  1. Genetics: Family history plays a significant role in hair loss.
  2. Hormonal Imbalance: Hormonal changes, particularly an excess of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), can lead to hair loss.
  3. Stress: Physical or emotional stress can cause hair loss.
  4. Poor Diet: Lack of essential nutrients, such as iron, zinc, or biotin, can contribute to hair loss.
  5. Hairstyling and Grooming: Excessive heat styling, tight hairstyles, and harsh chemical treatments can damage hair and lead to hair loss.Can You Get Your Hair Back?

While there are treatment options available, the effectiveness of these treatments varies from person to person. In some cases, hair loss can be reversed, but in others, it may be more challenging.

It's essential to consult a dermatologist or hair restoration specialist to determine the underlying cause of your hair loss and develop a personalized treatment plan. They can help you explore the best options for your specific situation.

I'm really curious about how glycolic acid cream works, especially if I'm already using benzoyl peroxide 2.5% for my acne. My skin is pretty sensitive, so I'm worried about potential reactions. What's the best way to use these products together to avoid irritating my skin? Any tips would be super helpful!

Glycolic acid cream works by exfoliating the skin, unclogging pores, and promoting skin cell turnover, which can help improve acne. When used in conjunction with benzoyl peroxide 2.5%, it can enhance the effectiveness of the treatment by further exfoliating the skin and reducing inflammation. For sensitive skin, it is important to start with a lower concentration of glycolic acid (around 5-8%) and gradually increase the frequency of use as tolerated. It is recommended to apply a small amount of glycolic acid cream to clean, dry skin once every other day initially, and then increase to daily use if there is no irritation. Always follow up with a moisturizer and use a sunscreen during the day when using glycolic acid, as it can increase sun sensitivity.

I've been dealing with allergic eruptions ever since I was a kid. Recently, I found out I have psoriasis and eczema on my joints like my ankles, elbows, and knees. My IgE levels are pretty high at 1700. I regularly take Allegra 120 and Montair LC which help a bit, but nothing seems to truly work. I'm in a tough spot and dont know what to do. Can you offer any advice on how to manage or reduce these issues? I've tried both homeopathy and allopathy, but no luck so far.

For the management of Psoriasis and eczema with allergic eruptions, in addition to your current antihistamines, I recommend adding a topical corticosteroid cream like Betnovate to reduce inflammation and itching. Apply a thin layer to the affected areas once or twice daily. Also, you can use a moisturizer like Cetaphil to keep the skin hydrated. Furthermore, you can consider taking an immunosuppressant medication like Methotrexate under the guidance of a dermatologist to help control the autoimmune response causing Psoriasis. This should be taken once a week in a prescribed dosage. It's important to continue with regular follow-ups with your dermatologist to monitor your condition and adjust the treatment plan as needed.
