I'm noticing a lot of cracks on the glans of my penis, and while it's not itchy or burning, I'm worried about it. How can I get it back to looking smooth and normal?

I'm dealing with Androgenic Alopecia and in the past, I've seen good results with Minoxidil and Finasteride. However, after my daughter was born, I stopped using them for about two years and now I've lost my hair again. I'm considering starting Minoxidil lotion again, but I'm worried. If my daughter shares my pillow, could it have any negative effects on her skin or hair? I really don't want to cause her any problems.

try using separate pillows from now and use minoxidil 30min before bed

I'm really looking to get back my original skin tone and would love to know how I can achieve an even tone all over. Ive started avoiding the sun and use sunscreen when I have to be outside, but Id really appreciate any advice on natural ways to restore my skin tone. Any suggestions?
