I've been using BTN Ultra for my hair and saw great results initially, but now that I'm in my third month, my hair's starting to fall out and it's getting thinner. I'm getting worried because there's a history of baldness in my familymy dad's side. Could this be related, or is there something else going on? Would appreciate any insights!

I've been seeing white hair popping up on my scalp, beard, and chest, so I went to a dermatologist who recommended I take kerablak tablets and use altris gel. But I'm really just wondering if these are the right treatments for my issue. Plus, altris gel is pretty pricey, so I'm curious if there's a more affordable alternative out there. Any advice or suggestions?

Kerablak tablets, containing Amla extract, and Altris gel, containing Melanin-boosting agents, are commonly prescribed for promoting hair pigmentation and addressing premature graying; however, it's essential to note that results may vary and these treatments may not completely reverse graying; as for alternatives to Altris gel, you can discuss with your dermatologist other options like Minoxidil-based gels or serums, or natural alternatives like Coconut oil, Amla oil, or Rosemary essential oil, but always consult your doctor before making any changes to your treatment plan.

I'm dealing with eczema and I've been using luliconazole for it. I'm concerned about whether it's a topical steroid cream and if this could be harmful to my skin. I've also heard that steroids might increase the risk of lymphoma. Could you help clarify this for me?

Luliconazole is not a steroid cream, it is an antifungal medication used to treat fungal skin infections. It is generally safe for use on the skin and does not carry the same risks as topical steroid creams. However, like any medication, it may cause side effects such as skin irritation or redness at the application site. If you have concerns about using topical steroids for eczema, you can discuss alternative treatment options with your healthcare provider.

I'm dealing with a water allergy, and it's causing me a lot of discomfort every time I take a bath because I get really itchy all over. My doctor prescribed Althrocin 500 for this, but I'm not sure if that's normal for treating something like this. Is there something else I should be aware of, or any other treatments I might need to consider?
