I'm really confused about what's going on with my pregnancy. I've always had irregular periods, but my last one was on February 3rd. I used a pregnancy kit on April 3rd, and it said negative. Later, I checked again on April 26th, and it turned out positive. My doctor recommended a beta HCG test, which came back at 141.3 mIUml, and now they're saying I need to repeat the test in two days. I'm worried and unsure about whether this means I have a healthy pregnancy or if something's wrong. Can you help me understand what this might mean?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.
