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?

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.

Yes you can use it,but reason for hair fall needs to be ruled out,visit dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate management
