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 allI've been dealing with a really persistent ringworm infection for about a year now. I've seen a few dermatologists and the treatments they gave me worked while I was taking them, but as soon as I finished the course, the infection just came right back. I've tried using ointments like Terbifine and Onabet, and more recently, Dk gel, Nailrox cream, and tablets like Itaspor and Xyzal. I even used Absorbz soap. I used everything as prescribed up to last month, but here I am again, facing the same itching and rashes. Is there any way to get rid of this permanently?
yes u can use it, visit ur physician for apprpropriate managent

Can I start using Skinlite cream again on my tan spots? I tried it last year and it worked wonders, but then my face got really dark, and I had to see a doctor to get my original complexion back. After a family trip to Mumbai in June, I got pretty tanned. Is it okay to apply Skinlite on alternate days to those dark areas, or should I be wary of any side effects?

I'm using Biluma cream for the past couple of days, and it's causing red patches on my cheeks. Is this cream actually good for dark circles and skin whitening? How should I be using it? I'm a bit concerned and could really use some advice.
Biluma cream contains ingredients like Kojic acid, Vitamin C, and Niacinamide, which can help with skin brightening and dark circles. _Red Patches on Cheeks:_ 1. _Allergic reaction_: Stop using the cream immediately. 2. _Skin sensitivity_: Reduce frequency of application or dilute the cream with a moisturizer. _Tips for Using Biluma Cream:_ 1. _Patch test_: Apply a small amount on a discreet area before using on your face. 2. _Start with a low frequency_: Apply every alternate day and gradually increase frequency. 3. _Use a small amount_: Avoid over-application, which can irritate the skin. 4. _Moisturize_: Apply a gentle moisturizer after using Biluma cream to soothe the skin. If the red patches persist or worsen, consult a dermatologist for guidance.
