Is it possible to get rid of DHT on the scalp completely, like through surgery or something? Or are there natural ways to reduce it, like exercise or diet changes? I'm worried about hair loss and want to know my options.

While it's not possible to completely get rid of DHT through surgery or other permanent procedures, there are several ways to reduce its impact on hair and manage hair loss. Natural methods like dietary changes, exercise, and stress management can help reduce DHT levels and promote healthier hair. Additionally, there are medical treatments that can help slow down or reverse hair loss, including medications and hair transplant surgery

I'm a 35-year-old guy working as a software engineer with regular hours from 10 AM to 7 PM in Bangalore, Karnataka, India. Each summer, I'm dealing with this burning sensation on the top of my right foot, just behind my toes. It's weird because it only happens when I'm trying to sleep, causing me to wake up sometimes in the middle of the night. Any idea what could be causing this or how to get rid of it?

it can be peripheral neuropathy

I'm wondering when exactly I should be using Momate F for vitiligo, and how long it should be left on before washing it off. Could you give me some guidance on the right timing and duration?

Momate F cream is a topical corticosteroid used to treat various skin conditions, including vitiligo. Application and Duration: 1. Apply a thin layer of Momate F cream to the affected area (vitiligo patches) once or twice a day, as directed by your doctor.1. After applying Momate F cream, wait for at least 2-3 hours before washing your face. 2. When washing your face, use a mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid using hot water, harsh soaps, or exfoliating scrubs, as they can strip the skin of its natural oils and reduce the effectiveness of the cream.
