Topicort (Corticosteroid) and Treatment of Skin Irritation

Hey all,

So I went to a dermatology center. There was only a Physician's Assistant working at this place (small place) and he examined my hair since I've been getting a massive shed and my scalp has been itching and bothering me (the shed coinciding with my use of Regenepure DR every day for about a week). He said I had some irritation and then prescribed me Topicort, a topical corticosteroid. He said that would help. Apply it every night before bed for about a week.

Wouldn't a steroid increase hair loss? He said I had Seborrheic Dermatisis...but I just have redness, itching, tingly/burning and the sheds. No flakiness and white stuff or whatever else I associate with Dermatisis.

But anyways, should I bother taking this? I think I just over-burned my scalp with Keto...maybe I should give it a week before I start putting on other ****.

Any advice appreciated :)

I jus gor prescribed the same thing for my dermatitis. I haven't noticed an increase in hair loss and it stopped all the itching and scalp pain.
