I've been wondering if I should shave my pubic hair. Im also experiencing quite a lot of itching down there. Could this be related to the pubic hair, or is it something else?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
could be due to irritation from shaving, ingrown hairs, skin conditions, fungal infections, or even STIs. Its essential to pay attention to any other symptoms and consider adjusting your hygiene routine, or giving shaving a break if its causing irritation.

View allI'm dealing with a persistent fungal infection that's been bothering me for about 4 years now and I'm also overweight. I've heard about a medication called Itaspor that might help with antifungal infections. Do you think it could be effective for my situation?
Itaspor (Itraconazole) is a well-established antifungal medication, effective against various fungal infections, including: 1. Dermatophyte infections (e.g., ringworm, athlete's foot) 2. Candidiasis (e.g., thrush, vaginal yeast infections) 3. Aspergillosis However, considering your 4-year history of fungal infections and being overweight, it's essential to consult a doctor to determine the best course of treatment. Factors to Consider 1. Type and severity of infection: Your doctor will assess the type of fungal infection and its severity to determine the most effective treatment. 2. Underlying health conditions: Being overweight can increase the risk of developing certain health conditions, such as diabetes, which can affect the immune system and fungal infection treatment. 3. Potential interactions with other medications: Your doctor will review your medication list to ensure that Itaspor doesn't interact with other medications you're taking. 4. Liver function: Itraconazole can affect liver function, so your doctor may monitor your liver enzymes during treatment.

Ive been dealing with some small acne on my face and went to a dermatologist about a month ago. He prescribed some medicines after examining me, but unfortunately, the acne hasn't improved. The medications were Phexin 500 mg, Doxy 1 LR 100 mg capsules, Zitcare, and Acnovate gel. Should I keep using these or try something different? I'm just a bit worried about why they haven't worked yet and would love some advice!
the medications are appropriate for the condition ,if they doesnt work on your skin need to switch to other drugs,visit your dermatologist for appropriate treatment and ruleout the cause for acne.
