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'm having some issues with a sensitive glans on my penis and it's getting quite uncomfortable. Could you recommend any medication or treatment that might help with this? I just want to feel normal again without the constant irritation.
For sensitive glans of the penis, you can try using a topical numbing cream containing Lidocaine. Apply a thin layer of numbing agent in the form of a cream or spray on the sensitive area of the glans before intercourse.

I'm really worried about my skin recently. I had treatment for ringworm last month, but now I've noticed bristles near one of the spots where the ringworm was. This has been happening for the past two weeks. Could this be related to a condition like harpics disease? I'd really appreciate some guidance on what I should do next.
If so, please help me out. It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection known as tinea corporis, which is commonly referred to as ringworm. The presence of bristles near the ringworm spot could indicate a recurrence or incomplete treatment of the fungal infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream twice daily on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take oral antifungal medication like Terbinafine 250mg once daily for 2-4 weeks to treat the infection effectively. Remember to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further spread of the infection.
