I'm a bit worried about using Lumivoid. Does it contain steroids? My doctor wants me to use it for three months, but I've already been on it for a month and haven't seen any improvements. Is it safe to keep using it for so long?

Lumivoid does not contain steroids, according to its composition. As for its safety for three months, it's generally considered safe for long-term use1. Be patient: Skin conditions can take time to respond to treatment. It's essential to be patient and consistent with your treatment plan. 2. Monitor your skin: Keep track of any changes in your skin, including improvements or worsening of symptoms. 3. Maintain good skincare habits: Continue to follow a consistent skincare routine, including gentle cleansing, moisturizing, and sun protection.

I'm dealing with super sensitive skin and I've been trying out different creams. My neighbor suggested I try Skin Lite cream, and I've been using it once a day in the evening for about three weeks now. At first, everything was fine and my skin got a bit fairer. But during the second week, my face started getting irritated every time I washed it with Dove. Now, in the third week, I'm noticing some white patches on my face. Should I keep using the cream or is it best to stop?

I'm experiencing some itchy spots developing on my scrotum that aren't really painful, but they're releasing this non-smelly, kinda sticky fluid. I'm a bit worried about what this could mean. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I've been using Tretin ISO 20 mg for my adult acne since mid-October 2017, based on my doctor's advice. However, in November, my wife became pregnant, though we weren't planning it. I'm feeling a bit worried and am wondering if there could be any risks to my wife's health or the baby's health because I'm taking Tretin ISO. Could taking this medication have any negative effects? Would love to hear some guidance.
