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.

View allI'm dealing with a pretty annoying fungal issue on both of my legs, and there's these big round rings. It's just redness, no itching at all, but I can't seem to get rid of them. I've been taking Fluka and Terbinafine, but I'm worried they aren't enough or maybe I'm missing something. Any idea what's going on or what else I should try?
It sounds like you may be dealing with a fungal infection known as ringworm. Fluka (Fluconazole) and Terbinafine are commonly used antifungal medications. In addition to these, you can also consider using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole twice a day on the affected areas. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing to help the medication work effectively.

I'm using minoxidil 5% topical solution, and I've noticed that my scalp has been itching since I started applying it. Do you think I should stop using it, or is this a normal side effect? Would love to get your thoughts on this.

I've been dealing with folliculitis in my pubic area after shaving, and I've already tried using antibiotic creams and pills. It's been over three weeks now, and while the pimples seem to have improved, the issue still isn't fully resolved. Should I be worried that it's taking this long to heal? Is there anything else I can do to make it go away completely?
