I've been dealing with acne since I was 15, and it's gotten worse now that I'm 20. I tried some Ayurvedic treatments, but they didn't really help. A dermatologist recommended clarithromycin and tretinoin cream, which showed minimal improvement for a bit, but now my acne's back and even worse. Is there any real, lasting solution out there?

View allI'm noticing that the skin under my breasts and in the pubic area is getting darker, and I'm really worried if this could be something serious. I tried using aloe vera gel, but I'm not sure if it's helping. Can you give me some advice on what might be going on?
The skin darkening under your breast and pubic area could be due to a condition called acanthosis nigricans, which is often associated with insulin resistance or hormonal imbalances. I recommend using a topical cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid to help lighten the affected areas. You can try using Melalite cream twice daily for 4-6 weeks. However, it is important to consult a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis

I'm a bit worried because I started taking the Hair bless tablet and using the regain topical solution for my hair fall back in October 2020. I've noticed that my hair volume has increased, and theres some regrowth too, but Im still dealing with hair fall. The thing thats freaking me out is that the medication seems to be causing hair growth in other places, like my stomach. Is it safe for me to keep taking the Hair bless tablet, or should I stop and just stick with the minoxidil topical solution? What do you think?
Increased hair growth on areas like the stomach due to Hairbless tablet usage is a known side effect, particularly with topical application. Since you're experiencing regrowth and increased volume, it's essential to consult your doctor to reassess the treatment plan. They may recommend stopping the Hairbless tablet or adjusting the dosage to minimize systemic absorption and prevent unwanted hair growth. Continuing topical minoxidil application may still be beneficial for hair growth, but it's crucial to discuss the best course of action with your doctor

I'm noticing that every time I thread my upper lip, a white patch shows up that's lighter than my normal skin color. I've talked to a doctor online who recommended using Placentrex cream twice a day. I'm curious about how to get my skin back to its usual color. Also, I have an iron deficiencycould that be causing this? What should I do next?
that color difference is due to threading,that will heal with time no need to worry,u can use the gel as advised by your doctor,it will help in normalising the color.
