I've been using a procapil solution for a couple of months now, but I haven't noticed any improvement in my hair fall. I'm quite concerned about whether I should stop using it. If I discontinue it, will it cause my hair fall to worsen? I'm really worried and would appreciate some guidance.

Procapil is a combination of biotinoyl tripeptide-1, apigenin, and oleanolic acid, commonly found in hair growth products. If you have not seen any improvement in hair fall after 2 months of use, it may be appropriate to discontinue it. Discontinuing procapil solution is not known to cause an increase in hair fall. You can consider switching to minoxidil solution, which is a commonly used medication for hair growth. The recommended dosage for minoxidil solution is typically 1 milliliter applied to the scalp twice daily.

View allmy doctor recommended using watnil for 2 weeks to treat a wart but i'm not sure if it's effective enough or if i should consider laser surgery instead will watnil actually remove the wart completely
Watnil (a salicylic acid and lactic acid solution) is often recommended for wart removal, but its effectiveness varies. While it can remove warts, it's not always guaranteed to remove them completely in just two weeks, and some warts may be more resistant to this treatment. Laser surgery can be more effective, especially for stubborn warts, but it's more invasive and may have side effects.

I'm dealing with an itchy patch on my skin around the groin, and it's forming scales and wrinkles. I've tried all types of fungal and bacterial creams, but nothing seems to work. I'm really worried and not sure what to do next. Could you please help me figure out what's going on and how I can get some relief?
our symptoms are suggestive of tinea cruris(jock itch). Tine cruris is a fungal infection in the groin area. It affects mostly adult men. It's caused by a type of fungus called dermatophytes. Dermatophytes like to grow on skin that's moist and warm and thrive in areas where skin comes into contact with other skin, such as the groin or between the toes. You will have to keep the groin dry, have an antifungal tablet, antacid and a topical antifungal over the area. The following steps may help: - Avoid using oily skin products - Reduce your exposure to the sun. Exposure to sun may trigger or worsen an episode and a tan makes the rash more visible. - Do not wear tight clothing. - Change undergarments regularly - Wear breathable fabrics such as cotton to decrease the sweating. - Keep areas where there is sweat accumulation dry regularly and apply powder in those areas to reduce the moisture. If the problem is persistent or worsens I would advise you to meet a dermatologist.

I'm dealing with hair loss and considering a hair transplant. Can you recommend some good oils or shampoos to help with baldness? Also, is Medipsa Hair Transplant in Jaipur a reliable clinic for the procedure? I want to make sure I choose the right products and a trustworthy place for the surgery.
Finasteride 5./. shampoo is advised to the patient.
