Question

I'm concerned about this connection between vitamin D deficiency and seborrheic dermatitis. My vitamin D levels are at 10.53, which seems low, and I have seborrheic dermatitis. My doctor mentioned there's no link, but I read somewhere that vitamin D deficiency might cause seborrheic dermatitis. I'm confused and would appreciate some clarity on whether there's any real connection or if it's just a coincidence. Could my low vitamin D be affecting my skin condition in some way?

Question

I've been using Androanagen tablets for about three years now and also applying Amexidil 5 solution to tackle my hair fall issue. It's been helping, but I'm wondering if I should keep going with it. Is there a risk of having severe side effects if I take Androanagen for too long? Any advice would be appreciated.

Question

I'm dealing with really thin and scanty hair, so I went to see a trichologist. They prescribed me Mintop Eva 5 lotion and told me to apply 1ml daily. I'm curious, after putting on the Mintop, is it okay if I put oil on my hair after, say, 3 hours?

Question

I'm dealing with a fungal infection in the area around my penis and have started using some medications. I have a question about the abzorb powder Im using to prevent sweating in that area. Is it alright to apply it over the cream I'm using? Also, can I use the powder separately, and will it really help with the issue?
