I've been using Tugain men solution for about ten days now to deal with my hair fall, which a doctor recommended. But I've started noticing even more shedding since I began using it. I'm really confused about whether I should keep going with it or stop. Could you offer some advice on what to do?

View allI'm 31 and recently started getting pimples on my face that come and go. They pop up on my nose and cheeks mainly, and they're kind of white. If I press them, a liquid comes out, and they usually disappear after about three days. I've never really used soap on my face, and I don't engage in activities like watching porn or masturbating every day. I'm just wondering why this is happening at my age. Can you help me figure it out?
Possible Causes of Pimples 1. Hormonal fluctuations: Changes in hormone levels, even in adulthood, can lead to acne. 2. Stress: Stress can increase cortisol levels, contributing to acne. 3. Diet: Consuming dairy products, refined carbohydrates, or foods high in sugar can trigger acne. 4. Genetics: Family history can play a role in acne development. 5. Environmental factors: Exposure to pollution, humidity, or certain chemicals can contribute to acne. White Pimples with Liquid Discharge The pimples you described, with a white color and liquid discharge, might be: 1. Pustules: A type of acne lesion filled with pus. 2. Milia: Small, white bumps caused by keratin buildup. 3. Sebaceous filaments: Naturally occurring, small bumps on the nose and cheeks. Next Steps 1. Consult a dermatologist: For personalized guidance and treatment. 2. Maintain good skincare habits: Cleanse your face gently with a non-comedogenic cleanser, and moisturize regularly. 3. Avoid picking or squeezing pimples: To prevent further inflammation and scarring. 4. Consider lifestyle changes: Reduce stress, eat a balanced diet, and stay hydrated.

I'm noticing my skin tone is getting darker since I moved to Chennai, and I'm really concerned about it. I'm also breaking out with pimple-like wounds all over my body, which I think might be due to the heat. I usually walk to the office around 8:45 am, and my skin is exposed to the sun for just about 10 minutes. I use VLCC sunblock with SPF 30PA and even cover my face with a scarf, but the darkening is happening all over, including on areas like my legs, stomach, and back, which are covered. I'm not sure if it's just the sun causing this. Can you help me figure out how to lighten my skin tone?
