    GlossaryFatty Liver Disease (Hepatic Steatosis)

    condition where excess fat accumulates in liver cells

    Fatty Liver Disease, also known as Hepatic Steatosis, is a condition where excess fat builds up in the liver cells. This can lead to inflammation and liver damage over time, potentially progressing to more severe conditions like cirrhosis or liver failure. It is often associated with obesity, diabetes, and excessive alcohol consumption, but can also occur in individuals without these risk factors.

      community Bad experience at Dermatologist

      in Update  41 upvotes 2 years ago
      A user had a disappointing dermatologist appointment where they were denied prescriptions for Dutasteride and oral Minoxidil for hair loss and were only offered a hair transplant referral. Other users sympathized, discussed self-medication, and suggested consulting a transplant doctor for up-to-date treatments.
