Castor/olive oil have minimal evidence; minoxidil-based serums or PRP therapy may offer better non-surgical eyebrow thickening.

I've been dealing with a skin rash that's red and slightly inflamed on my inner thigh, and it's getting a bit annoying. I decided to try Betadine Ointment, but I'm not exactly sure how often I should be applying it or how long I should keep using it. Can you give me some advice on that?

You can apply Betadine Ointment on the affected area 1-2 times daily. Make sure to clean the area before each application. You can continue using Betadine Ointment for up to 7 days, or as directed by your healthcare provider.

I'm wondering about the FAS 3 kit instructions. Is it supposed to be taken once a week? And does that mean it's a two-week course, like you take one kit on one day this week and then another the next week? Or is just one kit enough for the whole course?

FAS 3 kit is typically taken as a single dose. The kit contains multiple tablets that are meant to be taken all at once, not spread out over multiple weeks. So, one kit is usually enough to complete the course of treatment.
