I'm a bit worried about a brown mole on the shaft of my penis. It's around 57mm in diameter and has an irregular border. It started out at about 2mm just five months ago. Do you think I should get it checked out by a doctor?

View allI'm trying to figure out whether it's more effective to take fluconazole once a week at 150 mg or daily at 50 mg. Also, is oral terbinafine a better option than fluconazole? What are your thoughts?
If you're treating vaginal yeast infections or oral thrush, fluconazole (either 150 mg once a week or 50 mg daily) would likely be a better choice. If you're dealing with skin or nail infections caused by dermatophytes (e.g., athlete's foot, ringworm, or fungal nail infections), terbinafine would likely be the more effective option. Always consult your doctor or healthcare provider to determine the best course of treatment based on your specific condition

I've noticed some sores down there a couple of days ago, and now they're spreading. There's pus coming out, and it really burns when I pee. I'm pretty worried about what this could be. Any idea what's going on and what I should do?

I'm dealing with some major hairfall that's been happening ever since I bounced back from jaundice a couple of months ago. My dermatologist recommended using keraboost tablets and a hair serum. I'm trying to decide between two serums: one has Minoxidil and the other has Procapil. She said either would work based on what's available. But while browsing online, I read that stopping Minoxidil can have side effects. Does Procapil have any similar issues if I stop using it? I want to make sure I choose the option that's more sustainable for me since I can't afford something super long-term. Would love some advice on this.
Regarding your concern about the side effects of Procapil, it is generally considered to have fewer side effects compared to Minoxidil. Procapil is a combination of three active ingredients that work to improve hair anchoring, reduce hair loss, and stimulate hair growth without the potential side effects associated with Minoxidil. You can consider using a hair serum containing Procapil as recommended by your dermatologist.
