I've been getting these red rashes on my inner thighs and around the vaginal area, and they're really itchy. It seems like it's spreading to other parts of my body. Could you recommend any medicines or creams that could help with this and let me know how long I should use them for?

View allI'm really worried about my wife. She's had this pimple-like bump on her breast for almost two years now. It doesn't hurt her, but today the white layer on top came off, and it started bleeding a little. I'm not sure what we should do to treat it. Could you please give us some advice?

I've been off minoxidil for about three months now and I'm really worried because my hair is thinning and falling out more since I stopped. Originally, I was using it for acne and hair fall, and eventually switched to a stronger dose, but then I had some side effects like an itchy scalp, a racing heart, and swollen eyes, so I had to quit. Before starting minoxidil, my hair was nice and thick, and it even stayed that way while I was on it. But now, it's really thin. I'm currently trying BTN ultra biotin tablets to help out. How long will this hair fall continue and when will my hair get back to normal? Any advice would be appreciated.
When you stop using minoxidil, hair shedding is common because the hair growth stimulated by minoxidil enters a resting phase. This shedding period can last a few weeks to a few months, depending on individual factors. However, for many, hair fall should stabilize within 3-6 months after stopping minoxidil, and the hair should return to its previous state (before minoxidil) over time. To support your hair during this period: - Maintain a Healthy Diet: Nutrients like biotin, vitamins A, D, E, and minerals like zinc and iron are important. BTN Ultra biotin can support hair health, but ensure a balanced intake. - Reduce Stress: Stress management can help reduce hair loss and improve recovery. - Use Mild Hair Products: Avoid harsh chemicals and use gentle shampoos to support your scalp. If the hair fall continues or worsens, a follow-up with your dermatologist may be beneficial for personalized advice and to rule out other underlying causes.
