Is oily hair good?

Sebum or oil is secreted from scalp which naturally nourishes the hair and keeps it healthy. Only when the secretions become excessive, they clog the hair follicles, trap dust and cause hair loss.

I've been dealing with hair fall ever since I turned 20 and I've tried relying on stuff like minoxidil and procepia. They seem to work only as long as I use them, and stopping them makes the hair fall start up again. But once I got to college, I noticed that after I quit masturbating, my hair seemed to stop falling out. It's been three months since I last did, and my hairs actually looking better. So, I'm kind of curious, does masturbation really cause hair fall?

I've got these three rash spots near my genitals, like right on my thigh. They're ring-shaped, different sizes, and super itchy. I'm worried they might not just be a skin irritation. Could it be something like a fungal infection or something else I need to get checked out? What do you think?

I've been dealing with a fungal infection in the area between my breasts for about a week now, and I'm not sure what to do. It's really uncomfortable, and Im worried about how to get rid of it. Can you help me figure out a solution to eliminate this problem?

You can use Clotrimazole cream twice a day on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take Fluconazole tablets 150mg once a week for 2-4 weeks to treat the infection effectively. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further fungal growth.
