I'm noticing a lot of new baby hairs coming in, but the thing is, they're greyish white. It's kinda stressing me out. As I'm a pure vegetarian, are there any specific behaviors or diet tweaks I should be making to help with this?

Seeing greywhite baby hairs can be concerning, but it is a natural part of the aging process. To help maintain healthy hair color, as a pure vegetarian, you can focus on including foods rich in copper, iron, zinc, and B vitamins in your diet. Some dietary recommendations include consuming foods like lentils, nuts, seeds, whole grains, leafy green vegetables, and fruits such as berries and citrus fruits. Additionally, you can consider taking a Biotin supplement to support hair health. A balanced diet, adequate hydration, and managing stress levels can also contribute to overall hair health.

View allI'm 18 and my doctor prescribed the Hair Fact kit about 6 months ago. I've been using it regularly, but I'm getting a bit worried now. Could it have any side effects on my health? I keep hearing about DHT blockers and I'm not sure if this is one of them. Is that something I should be concerned about? I'm really anxious about whether it's okay for me to continue taking these tablets.
Typically contains vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients that are beneficial for hair growth. However, since you are only 18 years old, it is important to be cautious about taking any supplements without proper medical supervision. Hair Fact Kit may contain ingredients that help block DHT (dihydrotestosterone), which is a hormone that can contribute to hair loss. Blocking DHT can help prevent further hair loss and promote hair regrowth. In terms of potential health effects, it is important to follow the recommended dosage and not exceed the recommended intake. If you have any concerns about the effects of Hair Fact Kit on your health, I recommend discussing them with your doctor. They can provide personalized advice based on your medical history and current health status.

I'm really concerned about my skin pigmentation. I've been using a skin shine cream for about a month now, and while it did make my skin look paler, once I stopped using it, I noticed the pigmentation came back. Is it safe to continue using this cream for a longer period? Or is there a better way to handle this so my skin doesn't keep reverting when I stop?

I've had these fat glands on my body since childhood and they keep increasing over time. They don't hurt but I really want to get rid of them. A doctor told me it's hereditary and harmless but I'm still bothered by them. Are there any medicines that can dissolve them or will I need surgery to remove them
Lipomas, which are benign fatty growths under the skin, are typically harmless and don't require treatment unless they cause discomfort or bother you cosmetically. While there are no medications to dissolve them, surgical removal is an option if you wish to get rid of them
