I'm dealing with some penile yeast infections and also having fungal infections elsewhere on my body. I'm considering taking fluconazole and using the KZ2 cream for it. Do you think that's a good idea, or should I take a different approach?

For penile yeast infections and fungal infections on the body, you can take Fluconazole for the yeast infection. The recommended dosage for Fluconazole is usually a single 150mg dose. For the fungal infections on the body, you can use KZ 2% cream. This cream contains Ketoconazole which is effective against fungal infections. You can apply a thin layer of KZ 2% cream on the affected areas once or twice daily, as directed by your healthcare provider.

I've been experiencing severe hair loss lately and it's really worrying me. I did all sorts of blood tests and found out I have a vitamin D deficiency.

What else could be causing such drastic hair loss?
