I've been trying to understand how often PRP treatment can be done because different clinics are saying different things. Some say they would apply the treatment twice a month over three months if the hair doesn't grow, which adds up to six times in three months. Is this frequency safe and effective? I'm concerned about whether there's a standard or if overdoing it could have side effects.

I'm experiencing a lot of hair fall and I'm wondering about the best time to take the Tricogro tablet. Could you advise me on that? Also, are there any other medicines or treatments for hair growth that you would recommend? And about weight loss, I've noticed an increase of about 8kg over the past year. I've got excess fat and can't seem to figure out what to do. Any advice or medication suggestions for managing this weight gain would really help.

I've been dealing with a lot of itching and irritation, especially in my private area, and I've found that using prickly heat powder after a shower really helps. I'm wondering if it's safe to use it every day in that sensitive area or if it might cause any issues in the long run. Is this a normal practice, or should I be concerned about any side effects?

No,it is not advised .
