I'm using Minoxidil and I've noticed some unwanted hair growing on my ear. Plus, I've seen an increase in hair fall on my head since I started using it. I'm curious if the hair on my earlobe will go away once I stop the Minoxidil. Should I be concerned about this?

I'm noticing my skin color is getting darker, and I'm not sure why. I've been following a good diet and usually stay indoors, so I don't think it's a sunburn issue. I used to drink less water, but now I'm having about six glasses a day. My skin used to be fair, and I'm feeling a bit worried about this change. I do eat a lot of warm foodscould that be affecting my skin tone? I'm just puzzled and need some advice on what could be causing this.

You may be experiencing skin darkening due to various factors. One possible reason could be increased melanin production in response to sun exposure, even if you are indoors most of the time. Another reason could be hormonal changes or certain medications that can cause skin darkening. To address this issue, you can try using a topical cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid to lighten the skin. Additionally, you can consider taking Vitamin C supplements or using Vitamin C serums to help brighten your skin. Make sure to continue staying hydrated and maintaining a healthy diet. If the issue persists, I recommend consulting a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.
