I've noticed that I've developed quite a few til on my face, and they seem to be increasing. I'm also seeing them appear on my neck and hands. What can I do to stop them from spreading and how do I get rid of them?

Excessive oil production on your face is often due to overactive sebaceous glands. While you cant completely stop oil production (and you shouldnt, as some oil is necessary for healthy skin), you can manage it effectively with the following steps: Cleanse properly, hydrate your skin, control shine during the day by carrying tissues to absorb the excess oil without disturbing makeup, adjust your diet, avoid heavy makeup, exfoliate weekly , use specialised treatments, manage stress.

I've been on Finasteride Finpecia 1 mg for about four years now, and it's been working great for me. But I've recently started hitting the gym and want to start using whey protein supplements. I'm a bit worried if the whey protein could react or interfere with the Finpecia. Is it safe to use both together? What should I know before I go ahead with it?

Finasteride (Finpecia 1mg) and whey protein supplements are generally considered safe to use together, as they work through different mechanisms and have distinct metabolic pathways. Finasteride is metabolized by the liver and excreted by the kidneys. Whey protein supplements may increase kidney workload, but this is typically only a concern for individuals with pre-existing kidney issues.
