Question 1

I'm 21 years old and I haven't seen much growth in my beard and mustache. Is there something I can do to help them grow, or is this normal for my age?

Accepted Answer

Facial hair growth can be influenced by genetics and hormones. One option to promote beard and mustache growth is to use Minoxidil solution 5%. You can apply it on the areas where you want hair growth twice a day. It may take several months to see results, so patience is key. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new treatment.

Question 2

I am a male and I have a yeast smell coming from my groin area. This has been going on for a few months and jock itch cream is not working. I shower twice a day and wash thoroughly. I am a very clean person but can't seem to get rid of this odor.

Accepted Answer

I recommend using an antifungal medication such as Clotrimazole cream twice a day for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take Fluconazole tablets once a day for 7-14 days to help treat the infection from the inside. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting clothing, and avoid sugary foods that can worsen yeast infections. If the symptoms persist, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Question 3

Question 5

I am keeping clear gel on my face for an hour is that effective?

Accepted Answer

Keeping a clear gel on your face for an hour can be effective, but for optimal results, it is recommended to keep it on for at least 2-3 hours. This allows the active ingredients in the gel to penetrate the skin and work effectively. Make sure to follow the instructions on the product label for the best results.

This reaction might be a rebound effect or steroid-induced acne.Considering you've already tried various treatments, it's essential to consult a dermatologist for personalized guidance.
