View allI'm Bibek, and I'm 18 years old. I've read lots of articles about boosting beard growth, but unfortunately, they've all come up short so far. I'm genuinely curiousdoes applying sperm on my face really help with growing a beard? Could you shed some light on this for me?
Applying sperm on the face is a common myth with no scientific basis for increasing beard growth. In fact, it's not recommended due to potential skin irritation and infection risks.

I'm dealing with super sensitive skin and I've been trying out different creams. My neighbor suggested I try Skin Lite cream, and I've been using it once a day in the evening for about three weeks now. At first, everything was fine and my skin got a bit fairer. But during the second week, my face started getting irritated every time I washed it with Dove. Now, in the third week, I'm noticing some white patches on my face. Should I keep using the cream or is it best to stop?

I'm really worried about this skin rash I've had for 3 years. It always seems to flare up after I chew tobacco. The rash just doesn't go away easily, and I have to take half a Cetrizine pill to get some relief. I'm really concerned if this could be related to HIV. Can you help?
The skin rash triggered by chewing tobacco is unlikely to be directly related to HIV, as HIV-related rashes typically occur in conjunction with other symptoms like fever, fatigue, and swollen lymph nodes; instead, consider consulting a dermatologist to determine the underlying cause of the rash, which could be an allergic reaction or contact dermatitis, and follow their recommended treatment plan, while also avoiding tobacco and other potential triggers.
