I'm just wondering how accurate the herpes HSV IgG test is after three months since I was exposed. I got a negative result, but I've noticed a blister under the foreskin. Should I consider getting retested in a few months?

I'm thinking about starting the Hair Bless tablets because I've got pretty thin hair and I'm really hoping for some growth. But I'm a bit worried about possible side effects. Do you think it's worth trying, or should I be cautious about anything specific with these tablets?

Hair Bless tablet contains biotin, folic acid, and minerals which can help promote hair growth and improve hair health. It is generally safe to use and side effects are rare. However, some people may experience minor side effects such as stomach upset or skin reactions. For thin hair, you can try using Hair Bless tablet along with a topical minoxidil solution like Mintop. Minoxidil can help stimulate hair growth and improve hair thickness.

I've got these three lines on my stomach that I thought were from when I was heavier. Now that I've lost weight, I still have them. What can be done to make them go away?

To help reduce the appearance of stretch marks, you can try using a topical cream containing Tretinoin. Apply a thin layer of Tretinoin cream on the affected area once daily at night. Additionally, you can also consider using a cream containing Hyaluronic Acid to improve skin hydration and elasticity. Make sure to consult with a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment options.

I've been dealing with this jock itch for a couple of months now and it's driving me crazy. I've tried using Cloben G cream, and it seems to help while I'm using it, but as soon as I stop, the itch comes back. It's really uncomfortable and mostly around my inner thighs and buttocks. The skin is darker with a red, bumpy border, and lighter brown inside. I'm looking for a permanent fix. What can I do?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.
