Is it alright to take oral glutathione if I'm currently on isotretinoin 10 mg per day? I just started the isotretinoin today, and I'm a bit worried about any potential interactions or side effects.

Im really concerned because every time I apply lotion or cream on my face, I get a burning sensation and it gets really irritating. Im thinking it might be a sunburn, but Im not sure. Some parts of my face are really dry, and when I put cream on those spots, it burns even more. What can I do to get my skin smooth and clean? Any advice would be really helpful.

I've noticed my hairline is receding, especially around the temple and frontal areas, and I tried using Minokem like my dermatologist recommended, but it doesn't seem to be working. I still have these baby hairs on my scalp. What's worrying me is that while there's no baldness on my dad's side, there is on my mom's - my uncle and grandfather are both bald. Could this be something genetic from my mom's side? Is there anything else I should try or consider?

I'm dealing with a receding hairline and was advised to take Saw Palmetto with beta Sitosterol. I've heard that beta Sitosterol might cause sexual side effects, like loss of libido or erectile dysfunction. Is that true? And if it does cause these issues, will they go away once I stop taking the medication?

Beta sitosterol is a plant sterol that is commonly found in saw palmetto extract. While rare, some individuals may experience sexual side effects such as loss of libido or erectile dysfunction while taking beta sitosterol. If you are experiencing these side effects, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider. They may recommend adjusting the dosage or discontinuing the medication. In most cases, once the medication is stopped, the sexual problems should resolve.
