I'm dealing with frequent hair fall and complete hair loss, and my scalp now looks bald. There's no dandruff, but its smooth and shiny like a cricket ground, and Im really struggling with confidence because of it. Its something that runs in my family, but I desperately want to get back a full volume of hair. Can you offer any advice on treatments or solutions that might help restore my hair?

, this condition is androgenic alopecia..treatment depends on staging ..early stages can be treated with medication like minoxidil finasteride and other medications like supplements. PRP sessions help as adjunct procedure along with medical management or hair transplantation .advanced stages like yours may need hair restoration..plz consult nearest hair specialist of dermatologist for further details

I'm noticing that the skin under my breasts and in the pubic area is getting darker, and I'm really worried if this could be something serious. I tried using aloe vera gel, but I'm not sure if it's helping. Can you give me some advice on what might be going on?

The skin darkening under your breast and pubic area could be due to a condition called acanthosis nigricans, which is often associated with insulin resistance or hormonal imbalances. I recommend using a topical cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid to help lighten the affected areas. You can try using Melalite cream twice daily for 4-6 weeks. However, it is important to consult a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis

I'm not dealing with dandruff or any itchiness in my hair. I wash my hair with shampoo every three days and use good quality hair oil. I also don't wear caps that could trap any odor. Still, I've noticed that after showering, my hair smells a bit sour for around an hour. I'm puzzled about what's causing it. I don't have any allergies or other symptoms either. What could be going on?

You may be experiencing a mild case of scalp odor. This can sometimes happen due to a buildup of sweat, oil, or bacteria on the scalp. To help improve the smell of your hair, you can try using an anti-dandruff shampoo containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide. Use it twice a week, leaving it on for 5 minutes before rinsing off. Additionally, you can use a medicated shampoo containing zinc pyrithione or coal tar once a week to help control any scalp odor. Make sure to rinse your hair thoroughly after shampooing. If the issue persists, you may want to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation.

I'm wondering if it's safe to use hair removal cream to get rid of pubic hair. Has anyone tried VWash hair removal cream for this? Or maybe there's another product that's better for completely removing pubic hair? I'm a bit concerned about the safety and effectiveness, and would love to hear from someone with some expertise or experience!

Yes you can use it no problem
