I've been using Minoxidil 5 and Finasteride 0.1 Topical Solution for the last couple of years. At first, everything seemed great, but now my hair's falling out more than ever. Plus, I'm dealing with acne as well. Could this be a sign of some hormonal imbalance? My CBC showed I'm low on Vit D3 and B12, but I've been taking the prescribed pills for that. I try to work out a bit and my diet's just regular Indian food, nothing fancy. I'm not really keen on treatments like PRP but I'm wondering if I should switch to Oral Finasteride. What do you think?

View allI'm experiencing this really frustrating full body itching that has turned into black marks. I saw a doctor, and they mentioned it might be because of dry skin. I've tried using lotion, ointments, and even tablets, but they only seem to help while I'm using them. As soon as I finish the course, the itching comes back. Can you help me understand what's going on or suggest something that might work better?

I usually bathe about four times a week. I'm feeling really tired lately, and I'm also concerned because I can't seem to stop watching porn videos. Could this be affecting my health, and is there something I should be worried about?
It is important to moisturize your skin after bathing to help maintain its health. Feeling very tired could be a sign of various underlying health issues, such as poor sleep quality, stress, or anemia. It is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, balanced diet, and adequate sleep to combat fatigue. As for watching porn videos, excessive consumption can lead to addiction and have negative effects on mental health, relationships, and overall well-being. It is important to seek help if you are struggling to control your viewing habits. For fatigue, you can try taking a multivitamin supplement like Centrum once daily after meals to ensure you are getting all the necessary nutrients for energy production.

I'm working the night shift and dealing with some unbearable jock itch, the itching and pain are really getting to me. Could you recommend any medicine that might help? Also, I'm wondering about what foods I should eat or avoid. Is it okay to have dal, ghee, chicken, eggs, fish, or wheat during this time? Plus, is it safe to hit the gym with this condition? Would appreciate any advice you can offer!
