Question: "My skin has become completely dry from hormonal DHT blocker tablets. Now I'm having problems because my skin is completely bare and extremely sensitive. What can I do?"

When hormonal treatments affect your skin, it's important to work with your healthcare provider to find the right balance. They may need to adjust your treatment or recommend additional skincare support. Here are some treatment options that may help with dry, sensitive skin from seborrheic dermatitis:

• Over-the-counter skin care ointments, lotions, and creams to help moisturize
• Topical treatments with salicylic acid for gentle exfoliation
• Calcineurin inhibitors which can help reduce inflammation
• Prescribed corticosteroids for temporary relief

Always consult with your healthcare provider before starting or changing any treatments, as they can help determine the best approach for your specific situation.
