I'm a 36-year-old woman currently on antidepressants, and lately, I've been experiencing some pretty severe hair fall. I'm wondering if it's okay for me to take Xtraglo tablets? I know they contain something called methylsulfonylmethane. Is that safe for me to use, considering my current medication? Would love some advice on this.

View allI've heard from a bunch of friends that homeopathy might help with my hair fall. But I'm really curious if it's actually safe to try out these medicines. And if I start, does that mean I have to keep taking them forever?
Alllopathy is advised to the patient.

I'm struggling with hair loss and my PRP treatment doesn't seem to be working. It's really getting me down because I've spent a lot of money, and I'm still losing hair, especially at the front. I'm desperately looking for effective suggestions so I can regain my confidence. Any advice would be really appreciated.
Only prp will not work. You are suffering from androgenic alopecia which is also called as pattern baldness. The hairs start reducing in density at the crown (top) and also the hairline starts refeeding from the front. This is usually progressive throughout life unless treated. This may also be accompanied by severe dandruff. The FDA approved treatment for this condition is a lotion and tablets. There is no other alternative. No oil or cream will magically work because the hairs are getting miniaturised and eventually disappearing due to the hormonal effects on the hair roots. consult dermatologist

I'm 25 and I've noticed these two yellowish deposits near my right eye. I'm pretty sure they're called xanthelasma. I'm a bit worried and just want to know what these are exactly and how I might be able to get rid of them. Are there any effective treatments or procedures I should consider? Any advice would really help!
Xanthelasma can be treated with the help of topical medications containing trichloroacetic acid or chemical peels. In some cases, cryotherapy or laser therapy may be recommended to remove the deposits. It is important to consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation and treatment.
