I've got a concern about my health. So, I had a skin allergy about a month ago, and thankfully it's all cured now. But recently, I've been dealing with fissures and used some Ayurvedic medicine for them. It seems to have increased my eosinophils, though the infection has cleared up. The thing is, my ASO titre count is still at 421, and I'm just wondering if that's something to be worried about. Could you help me understand if this high ASO titre is normal, or should I be taking some steps here?

-Your high ASO titre count of 421 suggests a recent or past streptococcal infection, which could be linked to your skin allergy or other issues. It's good that your infection has cleared up, but the elevated ASO level might take some time to return to nor

I've been using finax 1mg for hair loss for the last 15 days and honestly, my hair loss had already stopped before I started taking it. But now, it seems like my hair loss is worse, so I'm really thinking about quitting the medicine. I'm just concernedare there any side effects if I stop after only 15 days? Any advice would be super helpful.
Finax 1mg, containing finasteride, is a medication primarily used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness). Why You Might Be Experiencing Increased Hair Loss 1. Initial Shedding: Finasteride can cause an initial shedding of hair, especially during the first few months of treatment. This is a common phenomenon, and hair growth should stabilize over time. 2. Hormonal Adjustments: Finasteride works by blocking the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that contributes to hair loss. However, this hormonal adjustment can sometimes lead to temporary increased hair loss. Stoping Finax 1mg After 15 Days 1. No Significant Side Effects Expected: Since you've only been taking Finax 1mg for 15 days, it's unlikely that you'll experience significant side effects from stopping the medication. 2. Rebound Effect: However, you might experience a rebound effect, where your hair loss returns to its pre-treatment state or even worsens temporarily. 3. Hormonal Readjustment: After stopping finasteride, your hormone levels will readjust, which might lead to temporary changes in hair growth patterns.

I've noticed my hair is falling out really fast these days, like 30-40 strands every day, and my hairline seems to be receding daily. I started doing this ancient yoga thing I found online called Balayam nail rubbing, and some reviews mentioned there's usually an initial shedding phase of around 3 months. They said the hair fall would stop after that, but it's not happening for me. So, I'm a bit worried because I quit doing the technique, and my hair fall has increased. Also, hair loss runs in my familymy dad was half baldand my diet is kind of low on protein. I'm just trying to figure out how to slow down the hair loss, and it would be amazing if it could stop altogether. Any advice or recommendations?
