I'm 17 and recently I've been losing a lot of hair and finding it hard to focus on my studies. I've noticed I masturbate daily and I'm worried it might be related. Could you help me understand what's going on and suggest ways to handle the hair loss? Also, what kind of food should I be eating to help with this?

Question

I'm dealing with pimples and marks on my face and I'm currently using tivenca gel in the afternoon and at night, plus peroclin gel in the evening. I'm curious about something though when I apply the tivenca gel at night and leave it on while I sleep, then wash my face with tone n glow face wash in the morning, am I somehow reducing the effectiveness of the tivenca gel? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.

Question

I'm noticing that every time I thread my upper lip, a white patch shows up that's lighter than my normal skin color. I've talked to a doctor online who recommended using Placentrex cream twice a day. I'm curious about how to get my skin back to its usual color. Also, I have an iron deficiencycould that be causing this? What should I do next?

Question

I'm dealing with a rash or maybe a fungal infection on my inner thighs close to my genitals, and it's causing a lot of itching. I've been using itchguard for the past four days, but I'm still worried. Do you have any advice on what else I should do?
