I've noticed some brown spots and patches appearing in my armpits. This has happened before and went away on its own, but now they've come back and are starting to spread to my other armpit. I'm really worried about it. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm 23 and I've been dealing with a receding hairline and thinning hair. I've been taking Androanagen tablets daily for the past six months. Should I keep taking them? And what happens if I stop; will my hair fall get worse? I've noticed some improvement since I started them, but I'm kind of anxious about what could happen if I make any changes. Any advice?

Since you have noticed some improvement in your condition after starting Androanagen, it is advisable to continue taking it as prescribed by your healthcare provider. If you stop taking Androanagen abruptly, there is a possibility that your hair fall may increase again. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations regarding the duration of treatment with Androanagen to maintain the benefits you have observed.

I'm really curious about the yag laser treatment for dark lips. I've heard that the results might not last forever. Is it true that they're temporary in all cases? Also, I only smoke once a month and I've been trying to stop lip licking and always apply lip balm with SPF. In this situation, would the results of the treatment last longer or maybe forever? If there's any permanent solution for dark lips, I'd love to know. Would appreciate your advice!

YAG laser treatment for dark lips can provide long-lasting results, but they may not be permanent for all cases. Quitting smoking, avoiding lip licking, and regularly applying lip balm with SPF can help maintain the results for a longer period. Additionally, you can consider permanent treatments like Q-switched Nd:YAG laser therapy or chemical peels for dark lips. These treatments can offer more permanent results compared to YAG laser treatment.
