I'm really worried about the side effects of finax 1mg that I've been prescribed for my hair loss. Can you tell me just how much it might reduce my libido or even cause erectile dysfunction?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The side effects of finax 1mg (Finasteride) on libido and erectile dysfunction are uncommon. Less than 2% of men may experience a decrease in libido, and even fewer may experience erectile dysfunction. These side effects are usually reversible upon discontinuation of the medication. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage regimen to minimize the risk of experiencing these side effects.

View allI recently had my first session of fractional CO2 laser treatment, and about 20 days later, I had to spend some time outside in the sun for work. I did use sunscreen, but my skin still seems to have been affected. It's red and feels really tight. I'm kind of worried and wondering if I should use Fucidin cream now. Is the damage permanent, or can it be fixed? Would really appreciate some advice.
Kozicure cream for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks , at bedtime ,if any side-effects dermat opinion is advised .

I'm dealing with ringworms and it's really itchy and annoying. It goes away for a bit but then comes back. What should I do? I've tried using excel m but it's not helping much.
Ringworm can be frustrating and uncomfortable. Understanding Ringworm Ringworm, also known as dermatophytosis, is a fungal infection that affects the skin. It's highly contagious and can be spread through direct contact with an infected person, animal, or contaminated surface. Why Ringworm Keeps Coming Back The recurrence of ringworm can be due to several factors: 1. Incomplete treatment: If the treatment is not completed or is not effective, the fungus may not be fully eliminated, leading to recurrence. 2. Contaminated environment: If the environment is not properly cleaned and disinfected, the fungus can survive and re-infect you. 3. Weakened immune system: A weakened immune system can make you more susceptible to fungal infections, including ringworm. 4. Skin-to-skin contact: Direct contact with an infected person or animal can spread the infection.
