I'm using DermaDew Bact soap to help with my acne. I'm wondering if using it might somehow slow down or interfere with my beard growth. Is that something I should be concerned about, or is it generally safe to use without affecting facial hair development?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
DermaDew Bact soap is an antibacterial soap used to control acne.
Impact on Beard Growth
- No direct effect: DermaDew Bact soap is unlikely to directly inhibit beard growth.
- Indirect effect: The soap's antibacterial properties might reduce inflammation and prevent ingrown hairs, potentially promoting a healthier beard growth environment.
Key Ingredients
- Benzoyl peroxide (2.5%): Antibacterial agent that reduces acne-causing bacteria.
- Triclosan: Antibacterial agent that helps control bacterial growth.
Precautions
- Use as directed: Follow the product instructions for use.
- Avoid overuse: Excessive use can lead to dryness and irritation.
- Patch test: Perform a patch test before using the soap on your face or beard area.

I've been losing hair from the root, and I notice a black bulb at the end. This has been happening for about 56 months, and Im averaging around 55 hairs falling daily, mostly when I rinse my hair. Sometimes, my scalp feels a bit irritated. This is new for me because I didn't have hair loss issues before, and no one in my family has experienced baldness before 60. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?
Based on your description, it sounds like you may be experiencing telogen effluvium, which is a form of temporary hair loss that usually occurs after a stressful event. To help with hair loss and promote hair growth, you can try using minoxidil solution 5% once daily on the scalp. Additionally, taking biotin supplements 10,000 mcg daily can also help improve hair health. Make sure to eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, and avoid using harsh chemicals on your hair. If the symptoms persist, consider consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm currently using Androfol, Follihair, and Coverit Minoxidil to help with my hair loss, but I've noticed there's been no improvement over the past two months. I'm considering starting Finabald 1mg but I'm concerned about potential side effects. Would starting Finabald be a good idea, and are there any risks I should be aware of?
Yes you can have it no problem
