Question 1

I'm dealing with this condition called balanitis, which is basically a fungal infection on my penis glans. I'm a bit worried and not sure if I should be seeing a dermatologist or a urologist for this. Could you give me some guidance on what would be the right step to take?

Accepted Answer

1. Diet and Exercise: Focus on weight loss, building chest muscles, and improving overall body composition.

Question 2

Can you tell me if it's okay to oil my hair while I'm using minoxidil? I'm a bit confused about how often I should be applying oil, like is there a recommended frequency per week? I'm currently using minoxidil and just want to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong.

Accepted Answer

When using minoxidil, it is generally recommended to avoid applying oil to the scalp as it may interfere with the absorption of the medication. However, you can still apply oil to the lengths of your hair to keep it nourished and hydrated. It is best to apply the oil to the hair at least 2-3 hours before or after applying minoxidil to ensure proper absorption of the medication. You can do this 1-2 times a week, depending on your hair's needs.

Question 3

I'm really worried about my hair falling out from the roots over the past three months. Every shower seems to lead to a lot of strands coming off my scalp. What could be causing this severe hair fall, and is there something I should be doing differently to help with it?
