I'm dealing with almost complete baldness for the past 10 years. Do you think it's a good idea for me to try refollium, which is a DHT blocker? I'm wondering if it could help or if I should be concerned about any side effects. What are your thoughts?

I had chicken pox a couple of months back, and now I've noticed my scalp is really dry. Just today, I lost several hairs from the area where the pox marks were. I'm worried if the skin will eventually regenerate hair in that spot. Could this be a long-term issue?

yes

I've been taking Allegra 180 for three days and stopped it, but now, around a month later, I've noticed lots of tiny dots in my mouth and they're kind of burning. Could this be a side effect from the Allegra?

The symptoms you are experiencing in your mouth may be due to a condition called oral thrush, which can sometimes occur as a side effect of taking Allegra. I recommend using an antifungal medication like Nystatin oral suspension. You can swish the medication in your mouth for about 30 seconds before swallowing. The usual dosage is 4-6 mL four times a day. Additionally, maintaining good oral hygiene practices such as regular brushing and flossing can also help alleviate the symptoms.
