I've just started using this morr5 stuff in the morning and the regrowth serum at night, and now I'm noticing these white flakes on my scalp. Plus, when I wash my hair in the morning, I find about 15-20 strands falling out. Is this a normal reaction when you first start using these hair treatments? I only began last Saturday.

After applying Morr5% in the morning and Regrowth Serum at night, it is not uncommon to experience some side effects such as white flakes on the scalp and increased hair shedding, especially during the initial days of using these medications. This can be a normal reaction as your scalp adjusts to the new products. To address the white flakes on your scalp, you can try using a gentle anti-dandruff shampoo. As for the increased hair shedding, it is important to continue the treatment as prescribed and monitor the situation. If the shedding persists or worsens, you may consider consulting your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm dealing with a persistent allergy to the parthenium plant, as indicated by my skin test report. Even though I've stayed away from these plants and there's none around my house, I'm still experiencing facial allergies. I've been using steroid creams and tablets, but the allergy keeps coming back once I stop them. Is there a tablet or an injection available that could help me manage this parthenium plant allergy more effectively? It's becoming quite frustrating.

I'm 16 and I'm noticing that I have a mustache and a bit of hair on my chin, but nothing on my cheeks, and my sideburns are pretty small. I'm feeling a bit self-conscious because everyone in my family seems to have a good beard except for one of my uncles. Someone mentioned that shaving every day for 20 days might help me grow a beard. Is that true? I'm really curious if there's anything I can do to help the hair come in, especially on my cheeks.
