I've been having some hair fall issues, so my doctor put me on these B12 supplements. But after about two weeks, I started getting really bad reactionslike rashes and acne on my hands and face. I stopped the supplements immediately, but it's been over a week, and my acne is still there and hasn't improved at all. Should I be doing something specific to help with this, or will it just clear up on its own eventually? I'm kind of worried and not sure what to do next.

It's been frustrating not seeing much progress since then. Could you suggest some treatments or medicines that might help with full beard growth?

I'm thinking about switching from Finpecia to Finalo 1mg because it's a bit more affordable. Is Finalo a good alternative, and are there any other cheaper brands youd recommend? I'm just trying to find a cost-effective option thats still safe and effective.
