I'm really worried because my skin has gotten so dull over the past couple of months. My engagement is coming up on the 28th of this month, and I really want to get my fair skin back before then. I've heard about melacare ointment and was wondering if it's safe and effective to use for this purpose. What do you think, should I try it?

Does Eberfine cream have steroids in it, and is it actually good for treating ringworm?

I've been diagnosed with scalp psoriasis, and I'm seeing some dry red patches. My doctor prescribed some ointments and vitamin tablets, but I've kind of forgotten what exactly I'm supposed to do. I'm wondering if it's okay to use Momate S cream on my scalp because it's really dry and patchy. Could you offer some advice on this?

I'm really worried because within just one year, I've noticed my hair is thinning so much and I'm even starting to see bald patches. It's like my hairline is receding too, and now I'm really concerned. I used to feel more confident and even a bit prettier when I had more hair. Do you think this might be something serious? Could it be from thyroid issues or maybe it's genetics? I'm just not sure what's happening, and frankly, I'm feeling freaked out. Any advice on what's causing this and what I could possibly do to stop or slow it down?
