I'm still dealing with a pretty bad infection on my inner thigh, and even after taking and applying Terbest like my doctor suggested, it hasn't gotten any better. It's been over a month now, and I'm not sure what to do next. Can you give me some advice on what might be going on or what steps I should take?

I've heard a lot about using alum for lightening facial hair, but I'm wondering if it's actually effective. Does it really make the hair less visible? Also, what should I be aware of in terms of benefits and drawbacks if I decide to try it out?

Alum, also known as potassium alum, can indeed help in lightening facial hair and reducing its appearance. It works by inhibiting the hair growth. However, it is important to note that alum can cause skin irritation and dryness in some individuals. Pros: - Helps in lightening facial hair - Reduces the appearance of facial hair - Can be a cost-effective hair removal method Cons: - May cause skin irritation and dryness - Not suitable for individuals with sensitive skin - Results may vary from person to person If you decide to use alum for facial hair, it is recommended to do a patch test first to check for any skin sensitivity. Apply a small amount of alum on a small area of your skin and wait for 24 hours to see if there is any adverse reaction. If there is no irritation, you can proceed with using alum for facial hair lightening.

Is there a risk of having severe side effects if I take Androanagen for too long? Any advice would be appreciated.

Consult a dermatologist to assess the risks and benefits of long-term use of Androanagen and Amexidil, as prolonged use may lead to vitamin and mineral imbalances, hormonal changes, or other side effects
