I've been using Olifair for just under a week now, and my face has gotten really bright and fair. I'm a bit concerned though, could it lead to a skin allergy or even skin cancer since it's caused such a noticeable change in a short time? Are there any side effects I should be aware of?

I'm using Colgate paste cream on my face along with my regular white cream, and now I'm noticing dark circles around my eyes. Are these creams causing this, and how long will it take for the dark circles to go away with medication or a cream? I'm thinking about consulting a doctor for this.

I'm really worried about my hair lately. Over the past two weeks, I've noticed significant hair loss. Every time I comb my hair, it seems like I lose around 50 to 100 strands, sometimes even more. It's quite alarming because it seems to be getting worse each day. My period cycle is normal, so I'm not sure what's causing this. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?
