I've been dealing with acanthosis nigricans for years and I'm really looking for some advice. Are there any Ayurvedic treatments or remedies that might help improve my condition? I'm curious to know if there's something specific in Ayurveda that could make a difference. Would appreciate any insights you might have.

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?
