I'm really worried about my wife's stretch marks on her inner thighs. She's been using Stretchrid cream recommended by a dermatologist, but its only shown a little improvement. She took an Unwanted 72 contraceptive pill in September 2019, and she's noticed a small weight gain recently, which might be linked to the stretch marks. Can you suggest the right treatment or medication for this?

Retinoids can help improve the appearance of stretch marks by promoting collagen production and increasing skin cell turnover. She can try using Retino-A cream 0.05% once daily at night on the affected areas. In addition to topical treatments, she can also consider taking Vitamin E supplements to support skin health and elasticity. I recommend taking Evion 400mg capsule once daily after a meal. It's important to continue using these medications consistently and be patient, as it may take some time to see significant improvement in the appearance of the stretch marks.

View allI've got this problem with a rash in my groin area, and it's got tiny red pimples. The skin between my thighs and scrotum is torn and looks pretty red. It's been really itchy and has this burning sensation. I'm really looking for some home remedies to help with this. Also, can I still donate blood while dealing with this issue? Is it something serious? Would really appreciate some advice.

I'm dealing with some pretty significant hair fall and I'm really hoping to put a stop to it and get my hair to be thick and dense again. I've heard about treatments like Minoxidil and Mesotherapy and I'm curious about the average cost for these. Also, once I start treatment, how long can I expect the effects to last?
Minoxidil is more affordable, with costs around 300 to 700 per month, but results only last as long as you continue using it. Mesotherapy is more expensive, typically costing 2,000 to 5,000 per session, and often requires multiple sessions to achieve noticeable results, but it can provide more long-term improvements with maintenance.
