I'm a bit concerned because I've noticed these white patches on the skin around my scrotum, penis, and thigh. It's been about 1.5 years since I first saw them, and luckily they haven't grown in size, but the area feels slightly numb. Do you think I should be worried, and what might be causing this?

I'm 23 years old and still can't grow a beard or moustache. I've been waiting for years and nothing's happening. Can you give me some advice on what I should do about this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a delay in facial hair growth. One possible solution is to use Minoxidil solution 5% twice daily on the areas where you want hair growth. Additionally, you can consider taking Biotin supplements 10,000 mcg daily to promote hair growth. Make sure to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new medications or supplements.
