I'm wondering if using Mintop Forte is causing some kind of reaction on my scalp. I've been applying it for the past two to three days, and now Im noticing pimple-like bumps popping up. I've attached a photo to show what I mean. Could these be related to the product, and should I be worried or do something about it?

I've been dealing with a skin issue and tried using candid b lotion and absorb powder. I even took zimig tablets, but nothing seems to be helping. The problem just keeps getting worse and spreading more. I'm really worried about how to get this treated effectively. Any advice?

I'm really worried about my hair loss. The crown of my head is almost bald now, but thankfully the rest of my hair seems okay. I'm wondering, is there really a medication out there that can reverse this permanently? And if medication can't cut it, what other steps should I consider taking?

Hair loss on the crown area, known as male pattern baldness, can be treated with medication to some extent. One of the most common medications for this is Finasteride, which is taken orally once a day. Another option is Minoxidil, which is a topical solution applied to the scalp twice a day. These medications can help slow down hair loss and promote some regrowth, but results vary from person to person. It's important to note that these medications need to be used continuously to maintain any benefits. If medication alone is not providing satisfactory results, another option to consider is hair transplant surgery. This involves moving hair follicles from areas of the scalp where hair is thicker to the balding areas. This can provide a more permanent solution to hair loss on the crown. It's best to consult with a dermatologist or a hair specialist to discuss the most suitable treatment option for your specific situation.

I'm really curious about hair fibres and if they can damage my hair. Is there a risk of them causing more hair loss?

Hair fibers, when used properly, are generally safe and don't cause significant damage or hair loss; however, excessive use, improper application, or using low-quality fibers can lead to tangling, breakage, or exacerbate existing hair loss conditions, such as alopecia or thinning hair.
