View allI'm dealing with male pattern baldness, and I think it's because of the DHT hormone. Could you recommend the best DHT blocker available in India? I'm really worried about my hair loss and looking for a solution that genuinely works.
Male pattern baldness can be challenging, but there are several natural DHT blockers that can help. Here are some of the best options available in India: - Foods rich in Vitamin C: Include foods like berries (especially blueberries), citrus fruits, and leafy greens in your diet. Vitamin C helps in reducing DHT levels. - Avocado: Rich in amino acids, proteins, and antioxidants, avocado helps in stimulating hair growth and blocking DHT. - Almonds: These nuts are rich in vitamin E, which conditions hair follicles and promotes hair growth. - Tomatoes: Lycopene present in tomatoes inhibits the production of DHT, promoting hair growth. - Eggs: Rich in biotin, eggs help in binding DHT hormone, reducing hair loss. - Green Tea: Vitamin B present in green tea promotes hair growth and blocks DHT. - Watermelon: Lycopene and vitamins C, B12, and B6 present in watermelon help in reducing DHT levels and promoting hair growth. - Pumpkin Seeds: Rich in zinc, magnesium, and omega-3 fatty acids, pumpkin seeds help in blocking DHT and promoting hair growth.

I've been using this bleaching cream called Oxy every month, and it gives me a fair look for just two days, then my skin goes back to normal. But now, after using bleach so much, my skin is starting to get darker, and I feel like I have to use bleach to make it better, which just seems to make it permanently darker. I'm really worried and curious if bleach cream is actually safe to use. Does it actually help? And since my skin's getting darker from it, what can I do to avoid this or make it better? Any advice on creams or tablets would be really appreciated.
