I'm really struggling with dandruff and heard that antifungal shampoos might help. Could you recommend some good options? I would really appreciate your advice!

Dandruff can be treated with lotions and shampoo (not commercial ones). Some people do have more oily scalp which cause visible flakes which we call dandruff. There are some other conditions also which can present like flaking of the scalp and have to be ruled out. Do not apply oil on scalp as it will increase the problem.

I'm taking R89 but my hair is still falling out. What should I do now? I'm really worried about this. Can you help me?
You can try adding minoxidil solution to your hair care routine. You can apply minoxidil 5% solution twice daily on the scalp to promote hair growth and reduce hair fall. Additionally, make sure to maintain a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals essential for hair health, and avoid excessive heat styling or harsh chemical treatments on your hair.
