I've been prescribed androanagen tablets and Tugain 5 solution for my hair loss, and I'm really worried after reading online that androanagen might lower testosterone levels, cause breast development, and reduce sex drive. Is this stuff true? Are there any other side effects I should know about?

I've noticed some wrinkles on my penis foreskin, and it has tears all around. Whenever I try to open it, it just closes back up, plus it feels pretty dry. It all started with just one tear. What's going on, and should I be worried?

I'm really worried because I've had dinai in between my private parts for the last 10 years, and even though I've tried taking medicine, it's not helping at all. Could you please suggest any medication or treatment that might work?

So, I just got my chemical smoothening done and I'm not loving this super flat look. The salon said to come back in three days for a wash, but I'm really tempted to wash it at home now. Is there any way I can get back some of my natural hair volume? Any tips on how to get this hair looking a bit more like it used to?
