I'm using Bellissa Lite cream to help with fairness, but I'm seeing results really slowly. I'm considering switching to Ilumax instead. Is Ilumax a steroid, and is it safe for me to use? Also, Bellissa is a bit pricey, so is Ilumax a more cost-effective option?

View allI've got these rashes down near the bottom part of my testis and on my thighs close to my private area. I can't figure out what caused it or what ointment I should use, if any. I'm juggling a tight schedule, so I can't really make it to a doctor. It's getting more and more itchy, especially after a shower, and it gets annoying because I have to change my underwear. I also need to wait for it to dry to stop the itching. What do you think could be causing this, and how should I treat it?

I've been losing a lot of hair lately, especially during washes and combing. I think it's partly due to the water in Kolkata since it has a lot of iron. Can you recommend a good shampoo for my situation? Also, I'm dealing with health issues like PCOD and low hemoglobin. I'm currently taking Livogen Z, Follihair tablets, and some Ayurvedic medicines like Kanchanaar Guggul and Triphala Ras for ovarian cysts. How long should I continue with the Follihair and Livogen Z? I've also straightened my hair recently, and I've lost a lot in the front. Really worried about how much hair I'm losing, any advice would be appreciated.
-Use a mild, sulfate-free shampoo with chelating agents to counter iron buildup in the waterlook for ones labeled for "hard water." Continue Follihair and Livogen Z for at least 3-6 months or as advised by your doctor. Avoid frequent heat treatments an

Can I start using Skinlite cream again on my tan spots? I tried it last year and it worked wonders, but then my face got really dark, and I had to see a doctor to get my original complexion back. After a family trip to Mumbai in June, I got pretty tanned. Is it okay to apply Skinlite on alternate days to those dark areas, or should I be wary of any side effects?
