I'm really concerned about a couple of things and hoping you can help. Does masturbation lead to hair loss or cause hair to turn grey? Also, could it be responsible for acne or pimples on my face? Would love to understand more about this.

I've been using Virovir 500 for treating my Herpes and it's helped a lot with the infection, but I still have this annoying itching above my left ear and behind my ears. Someone mentioned Sofinox might be a good solution, but I'm a bit worried. Is it safe to use it around the hair without worrying about any side effects, like hair fall? Would appreciate some guidance.

Sofinox cream contains Miconazole which is an antifungal medication. It is safe to apply around the hairs above the ear for itching. Make sure to apply a thin layer and gently massage it into the skin. There should be no significant side effects when used as directed. It is unlikely to cause hair fall later on. Apply it twice a day for 1-2 weeks for best results.

I'm dealing with a hereditary hair loss problem and it's really concerning. Do you think Baryta Carbonica 200 could help with regrowth on my bald patches? I'm just curious if its worth trying or if theres something else I should be looking at.

I'm 26 and I've noticed that I have no beard on my cheeks, and my mustache grows only slightly. I'm really hoping to find a way to grow both a beard and mustache. Can you suggest any medicines or other methods that might help with this?
