My hair at the front of my head has become really dry and super thin lately. I'm worried about it! How can I make them healthy again? What should I be doing to help with this?

To make your dry and thin hair healthy again, you can try using minoxidil solution. Apply 1ml of minoxidil solution twice daily on the affected area of the scalp. Additionally, you can take biotin supplements to promote hair growth and improve hair health. Make sure to consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation and guidance.

I'm a 28-year-old guy and I've just found out my DHT levels are higher than the normal range; mine are 1221 pgml, while the normal range is 250-990. I've noticed I'm also dealing with an itchy scalp and hair loss. Could there be a link between my high DHT levels and these issues? I'm really curious if that's what's causing it and what I should do about it.
See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I've been noticing a white layer forming on the head of my penis, and it feels pretty dry under the foreskin. When I try to pull the skin back, it sticks a bit. A few months ago, I was treated for a fungal infection, and I thought it had cleared up, but now I'm not so sure. Could this be a sign that I have diabetes?
You may be experiencing a recurrence of a fungal infection. You can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice a day for 2 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. As for diabetes, the presence of a fungal infection does not necessarily mean you have diabetes, but it is always a good idea to get your blood sugar levels checked by a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying conditions.
