Question

I've been noticing that I get these weird recurrent rashes around the time I ovulate. They're either skin-colored or red bumps showing up on my cheeks and forehead. Weird thing is, they clear up on their own by the time my period ends, or sometimes they go away within a week. This happens every month like clockwork. I'm not taking any pills or meds and I'm perfectly healthy otherwise. I did use emergency contraception a few times last year but that's about it. Could there be a connection, or is there something else I should be worried about?

Question

I've been dealing with this weird sensation, especially during winters for the past 15 years, where it feels like a bunch of needles are trying to poke out of my skin. It's really intense and usually happens when I'm out in the sun or doing some physical activity. The only time it goes away is if I remove my clothes and touch something cold or scratch my body like crazy. It's getting worse, to the point where just being outside for a short time sets it off, and it's really hard to control, especially around other people. I've also started noticing these red patches on my skin wherever I feel the needle-poking sensation, and it's really worrying me because it's affecting my daily life and work. I've tried bathing with cold water in the winter, which seems to help a bit, but I'm looking for a more permanent and sensible solution. Any ideas on what this could be and how I can manage it better?

Question

I've been dealing with really bad itching because my skin is super dry, so I started using clop e ointment for some relief. But now, my skin has gone white. What do you think might be causing this issue?
