Question

I've noticed that ever since I donated blood for the first time a few days ago, my hair has been falling out more than usual. Is there a connection between donating blood and experiencing increased hair fall? Should I be concerned about this change?

Question

I've been using elocon cream for a couple of months just on my chin, and now out of nowhere, I've got like 100 pimples all over my chin and jawline, and it's spreading across my lower face. I gave retin a a shot, but it actually made the acne worse. I also tried some antibiotic pills, but they didn't help. Now, I'm using fusidin cream 2 antibiotics, still no luck. It's been over 10 days and things aren't getting better. I just started using acutret, hoping it'll help. Could this breakout be a side effect of the elocon cream? If so, how long might it last, and what can I do to improve the situation?

Question

I've been using Betnovate C on my face for about three months, and now that I've stopped, I'm experiencing really bad side effects. It's like I've lost half of my face, and I'm really worried. I'm from Maharashtra and would love to meet with you. Could you please share your clinic address so I can get some help?

Question

I'm 27 and dealing with severe male pattern baldness, and now I've got dandruff too. I'm wondering if I can use minoxidil 5% solution even though I have dandruff. I'm thinking of shaving my head and starting with a dandruff shampoo, and then maybe using minoxidil after a couple of weeks. But I'm worried about any severe side effects this solution might have on my body. Is it safe to use?
