I'm an MBBS doctor dealing with acne vulgaris grade 2, and after trying minoz 40mg for 10 days with topical adaplene gel, I still haven't seen any improvement. I'm wondering what I should try next. Do you think Tretinoin would be necessary, and what would the dose be? I've noticed it gets worse pre-menstrually. Any advice?

View allI'm a bit worried because I started taking the Hair bless tablet and using the regain topical solution for my hair fall back in October 2020. I've noticed that my hair volume has increased, and theres some regrowth too, but Im still dealing with hair fall. The thing thats freaking me out is that the medication seems to be causing hair growth in other places, like my stomach. Is it safe for me to keep taking the Hair bless tablet, or should I stop and just stick with the minoxidil topical solution? What do you think?
Increased hair growth on areas like the stomach due to Hairbless tablet usage is a known side effect, particularly with topical application. Since you're experiencing regrowth and increased volume, it's essential to consult your doctor to reassess the treatment plan. They may recommend stopping the Hairbless tablet or adjusting the dosage to minimize systemic absorption and prevent unwanted hair growth. Continuing topical minoxidil application may still be beneficial for hair growth, but it's crucial to discuss the best course of action with your doctor

I'm currently using minoxidil 5% for my male pattern baldness and getting PRP treatments too. But the minoxidil is giving me dandruff, and I've been washing my hair every other day. I'm wondering if it's okay or even beneficial to wash my hair every day instead. Any advice on this?
Head wash three times a day is sufficient, dandruff issues could be due to fungal infection u can use topic antifungal medications, visit Dermatologist for appropriate treatment..
