I'm noticing these kind of spots on my foreskin and glans area, and I'm a bit worried. They don't itch or bother me, but I can't help but wonder if they're something serious. I've seen a dermatologist who mentioned they might be fordyce spots. Could these spots appear on the glans as well? Just trying to figure out if it's normal or if I should be more concerned.

I'm 24 and I've noticed my hair starting to fall out around 5 months ago. It's mainly coming out rapidly from the sides of my head above my ears, and now there's barely any hair left there. My crown and the top of my head seem fine, with normal volume. I've been using miniscalp10 and dutasteride for 5 months, but my condition seems worse. My hairline has also receded a bit, and I've always had a big forehead. I read somewhere that this might be retrograde alopecia, and I'm worried that a transplant might not be an option. My hair specialist keeps giving me the same meds, but I'm feeling really down about all this. Can you help or suggest something different?

Having just recovered from jaundice a couple of months ago, my friend, whos only 23, is really worried about losing a lot of hair lately. We visited a doctor who suggested using a procapil-based solution, but we're concerned about any side effects or what might happen if she stops using it. Could you shed some light on this?

yes you can have it
