I've been trying to figure out which soap is better for getting clear skin - Cinthol Original or Mysore Sandal. I've heard good things about both, but I'm not sure which one would really help improve my skin the most. I'm worried about causing any irritation or breakouts. Do you have any recommendations or insights on which soap might be more beneficial for my skin type?

Cinthol Original is generally considered better for clear skin due to its antibacterial and antifungal properties, whereas Mysore Sandal soap is more geared towards moisturizing and soothing skin, making Cinthol a better choice for acne-prone or oily skin.

I've been using morrf5 for about five months now. It was working well and really helped with my hair fall, but over the last couple of weeks, I'm noticing that the density on my left temple is decreasing, and my scalp is becoming more visible, even though I'm still using minoxidil. Could this be just a shedding phase, or is there something else going on?

Minoxidil 5. for local application ,once daily for 3-6 weeks is advised, tab finasteride 5 mg once daily for 3-6 weeks is advised to the patient.

Hey, so I had a fish burger about half an hour after drinking milk, and now I'm a bit worried about whether that might cause any issues like skin patches or something. Is this something to be concerned about, or am I just overthinking it?

You may be suffering from male pattern baldness (Androgenic Alopecia). It is treatable through a combination of medication and lifestyle changes. You may also have underlying undetected factors which may be promoting hair loss, such as dandruff, psoriasis or seborrheic dermatitis. It is advisable to consult a dermatologist to determine the severity and extent of your condition, and start off with a treatment regimen that is suitable for you.
