Shampooing too little or too often contributes to greasy hair , washing more than once a day can produce more oil to make up for extra shampooing

I'm thinking about stopping my use of Melacare. Can you suggest another cream that can help change my skin tone and make it look fairer? I'm a bit concerned about finding the right alternative.

If someone stops using Melacare cream, they can consider using a cream containing hydroquinone, tretinoin, and mometasone furoate. One such cream is called "Skinlite Cream." It should be used once daily at night for a limited duration under the guidance of a healthcare professional.

I'm dealing with some serious itching between my thighs and I'm pretty sure it's jock itch. It's really uncomfortable and I just want it gone for good. Could you recommend the best antifungal cream for this? Also, how can I make sure it never comes back once I treat it?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.
