I'm worried about my son's new wife because her dad has vitiligo, and I didn't think much of it before. The girl, my daughter-in-law now, doesn't show any signs of it so far. I've just learned that vitiligo can be hereditary. What are the chances she might develop it? And what precautions or treatments can we consider to prevent her or future children from getting vitiligo?

I've been dealing with serious hair fall and it's really stressing me out. My hair tends to be really fizzy, so I decided to try a rebonding treatment a few months back. At first, everything seemed fine for about four months, but now I'm losing around 50-60 hairs a day, and it's starting to freak me out. Could you please help me understand what's happening and what I should do?

I'm worried about using Melaglow cream every day. Can it damage my skin if used regularly? If its not safe, would switching to Fairlite be a better option?
Using Melaglow cream regularly is generally safe for most individuals. It is commonly used to treat hyperpigmentation and dark spots on the skin. However, it is important to follow the recommended dosage and application instructions provided by your healthcare provider or mentioned on the packaging. If you experience any irritation, redness, or other adverse effects while using Melaglow cream, you should discontinue use and consult with a healthcare professional. Fairlite cream can be used as an alternative to Melaglow if you experience any negative reactions to Melaglow. Fairlite also helps in treating hyperpigmentation and dark spots. The recommended dosage and application instructions for Fairlite may vary, so it is advisable to consult with a healthcare provider or pharmacist before using it.
