Question

I'm 25 and I've been noticing I'm losing hair around my forehead, and my hair is getting thinner every day. It used to be really thick all over my head. I'm pretty worried about this. Could you suggest what I can do to help with this problem?

Based on your description, it sounds like you may be experiencing male pattern baldness. I recommend using Minoxidil solution 5% twice daily on the affected areas of your scalp. Additionally, you can take Finasteride 1mg tablet once daily to help with hair regrowth. These medications can help slow down hair loss and promote hair growth. It is important to use them consistently for at least several months to see results.

Question

I've been dealing with some really intense itching around my groin area, and it's starting to worry me. There are these small dark pink patches and nothing seems to really help. I've tried using Neosporin powder and cream, but they only provide some relief for a short while. I'm starting to think it might be a fungal issue. What could be causing this and what should I do to get lasting relief?

Question

I'm really curious about glutathione and how it works for skin whitening. Is it a permanent solution, or would I need repeated treatments to maintain the results? I'd love to understand more about its effects and any long-term implications. Can you help explain this to me?
