I'm wondering if it's safe to start taking isotroin 20 mg and some other tablets that my doctor prescribed without having any blood tests done first. Is this normal, or should I be concerned about any health risks or potential side effects?

View allI've been dealing with telogen effluvium after recently having a fever, and I'm really worried about how long this might last. Can you give me an idea about the typical duration for this to go away? I'm just feeling a bit anxious about it.
Telogen effluvium after fever typically lasts for about 6 months. During this time, it is important to ensure you are getting adequate nutrition and managing stress levels to support hair regrowth. You can consider using minoxidil solution 2% to promote hair growth.

My hairline has been receding on the left side since around August. It's only been a few months but I'm worried it might get worse. Are there any treatments or medications that can help regrow hair or at least stop the receding? I'd prefer non-surgical options if possible.
Try minoxidil or finasteride (under doctor’s advice) to stop hair loss early—non-surgical treatments work better if started early.
