I've noticed that the dark circles under my eyes have gotten worse and turned into black circles. I'm using Tyrowhite cream every night before bed, but I'm also worried because my hemoglobin level is quite low at 8.4gdl. Could these two things be related? What can I do about it?

I've been working as an assistant professor at an engineering college, and I've been using a skin cream called My Fair for about two months. But just last week, I went to my village and spent a lot of time working under the sun in the fields. This made my skin turn extremely dark. My friend, who recommended the cream, said I should have used sunscreen when going out. Thankfully, my skin's back to normal with the same cream, but I'm really troubled by what happened. Can you give me some advice on how to prevent this in the future and how to deal with this dependency on the cream? Id really appreciate some guidance.

I'm really worried about my hairline; it's receding and my hair is getting super thin. I went to see a doctor and he prescribed me Tricosilk Max 5, but I didnt notice any improvement, so I stopped seeing him. A while later, I started using Tricosilk again, but now that it's unavailable, I switched to Mintop 5. Is it okay to continue with this? Should I be doing something else?

Yes you can take it no problem,follow your doctors advice
