I just really want to understand how much hair fall is considered normal each day. Sometimes I notice around 67 hairs falling out, and other times it's like 30 to 40. I'm also using Laxet forte tablets and applying Diprovate Plus lotion on my scalp, as my doctor advised. Should I be rubbing in the lotion or just spraying it on my scalp? And is there a chance this might help with regrowth?
Normal hair fall per day is 50-100 strands,you are using appropriate treatment you can continue that,u have to gently massage prescribed amount of lotion evenly over scalp.

Hey, I'm thinking about trying a glycolic acid cream12 grams of itfor skin whitening. I've got brown, oily skin, so I'm wondering if it's safe for me to use this. Are there any side effects I should be aware of? Also, is it okay to use glycolic acid cream for a long time? Would love to get your advice on this!
Using glycolic acid cream for skin whitening on brown, oily skin can be effective. However, it is important to start with a lower concentration to avoid irritation. You can try using Glyco-A 12% cream for skin whitening. Possible side effects may include redness, irritation, and increased sensitivity to the sun. It is recommended to use sunscreen during the day when using glycolic acid cream. You can use glycolic acid cream for a long time as long as you follow the instructions and do not experience any severe side effects."
