View allI've been having some issues since taking a tablet for my kidney stones. My scalp has become really itchy, and I've noticed a lot of hair fall. Plus, I have adenomyosis, so I'm a bit worried about all these symptoms happening at once. Could they be related, or should I be looking at something else as the cause?
Hair fall and itchy scalp can be side effects of certain medications. In your case, it could be due to the tablet you took for kidney stones. I recommend using a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide for your itchy scalp. For hair fall, you can try minoxidil solution on your scalp. As for adenomyosis, you may benefit from taking hormonal medications such as birth control pills or a progesterone-releasing intrauterine device (IUD) to help manage the symptoms.

I'm a breastfeeding mom and I'm worried about the skincare products I should or shouldn't use. I'm considering using a sunscreen day cream and wondering if it's safe. Also, I'm thinking about trying an anti-aging cream from Himalaya. Do you think these products are okay for me to use while I'm nursing?
Yes, sunscreen day cream can be safely used by a breastfeeding mother. Look for a sunscreen that is labeled as safe for use during breastfeeding. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 every day, and reapply every 2 hours if you are outdoors. As for the anti-ageing cream by Himalaya, it is generally safe to use during breastfeeding. However, it is always recommended to do a patch test before applying it to larger areas of the skin to check for any allergic reactions. Follow the instructions on the packaging for the correct application.
