For sensitive glans of the penis, you can try using a topical numbing cream containing Lidocaine. Apply a thin layer of numbing agent in the form of a cream or spray on the sensitive area of the glans before intercourse.

I've been dealing with acne and got advice from a dermatologist to try isotroin 10mg. I think it helped a lot, but now I'm experiencing blurred vision. Is this something that can happen with isotroin, or could it just be a random coincidence?

Blurred vision as a side effect of isotretinoin (Accutane) is rare but possible, as it can cause eye problems like dryness, irritation, or even inflammatory conditions like uveitis; however, it's also possible that the blurred vision is coincidental or related to another underlying condition, so it's essential to consult your dermatologist or an ophthalmologist

I'm trying to figure out the best time to use benzoyl peroxide gel 2.5. Like, should I put it on in the morning or at night? I've heard different things, and I'm honestly not sure what would be most effective. Does it matter when I apply it, or can I use it whenever?
