I'm really struggling with hair lice and it's been going on for several months now. I'm wondering, does using onion juice actually work to get rid of lice completely?

I've got these bald patches on the front part of my head, and my doctor said it's hormonal. They've advised me to use Hair4U 2 daily in the evenings. Now, I'm thinking about trying onion juice before washing my hair, but I'm not sure if it's okay to use both the onion juice and the Hair4U spray together. Can I mix these treatments, or should I be careful about it?

You may be suffering from androgenic alopecia which is also called as pattern baldness. The hairs start reducing in density at the crown (top) and also the hairline starts refeeding from the front. This is usually progressive throughout life unless treated. This may also be accompanied by severe dandruff. The FDA approved treatment for this condition is a lotion and tablets. There is no other alternative. No oil or cream will magically work because the hairs are getting miniaturised and eventually disappearing due to the hormonal effects on the hair roots. Along with this, you can also consider platelet rich plasma therapy for faster results. consult dermatologist

I'm a 31-year-old guy dealing with male hereditary baldness. My doctor prescribed Finax for it, but I'm a bit uncertain about which brand of 1 mg Finax tablets would be the best choice. Any advice would be really helpful!

There are many good brands of Finasteride that can be helpful for androgenetic alopecia. Finax, Finast, Finara, Finalo, and Fincar are all commonly used brands.
