View allI've been using Tretinoin 0.25 cream regularly, and it worked wonders for making my skin bright and tan-free. But after moving to Mumbai post-marriage, my skin's gone dull, and I've started getting pimples. I still use the same cream, yet my face looks lackluster and off. Could you give me some advice on how to fix this?

Can you help me with these stretch marks? I've been hitting the gym for about 2 years now, and I've started noticing red stretch marks appearing. I've attached some pics for you to see. How can I get rid of them, and what can I do to prevent them from coming back in the future?
To reduce the redness and visibility of your stretch marks, you can try using a topical cream containing ingredients like retinol, hyaluronic acid, or vitamin C. One option is to use a cream like Mederma Stretch Marks Therapy, applying it to the affected areas twice a day. In addition to topical treatments, maintaining a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals, staying hydrated, and moisturizing your skin regularly can also help improve the appearance of stretch marks. It's important to keep your skin well-hydrated to promote healing and elasticity. To prevent future stretch marks, you can also consider incorporating foods rich in collagen and antioxidants into your diet, such as fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins. Staying hydrated and maintaining a consistent exercise routine can also help keep your skin healthy and less prone to developing stretch marks. Remember, results may vary for each individual, and it's important to be patient as it can take time to see improvements in the appearance of your stretch marks.

I'm worried about the possibility of having sex with my husband while he's still being treated for scabies. He's only put on the cream twice, and we're noticing his skin starting to dry up in those spots. Is it okay for us to be intimate now, or should we wait a bit longer?
It's generally recommended to avoid intimate contact, including sex, until your husband has completed the full scabies treatment course, usually 2-3 applications of permethrin cream, 7-10 days apart, and has been symptom-free for at least 24-48 hours, to minimize the risk of transmission, as scabies mites can survive off the human host for up to 72 hours.
