How to use TM 5 Lotion

This medicine is for external use only. Use this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Shake it well and apply to the area evenly.

How TM 5 Lotion works

TM 5 Scalp Lotion is a potassium channel opener. Its vasodilation action expands the blood vessels. Therefore, when it is applied to the scalp, it helps to increase blood flow. This increased blood flow provides more nutrition and oxygen to the hair follicles, which prevents hair cell death and also enhances new hair growth. This is how it works to treat your alopecia (hair loss).

Quick tips

Wash your hands before and after application.
It should only be applied directly to the scalp. If TM 5 Scalp Lotion accidentally comes in contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth, flush the area thoroughly with cool tap water.
Do not shampoo your hair or use a hairdryer for 4 hours after applying TM 5 Scalp Lotion as it can reduce the effectiveness of the medicine.
During the first 2 weeks of application, your hair fall may increase. This is normal and is a sign that TM 5 Scalp Lotion is working.
Take care that TM 5 Scalp Lotion does not trickle down onto your face as it may cause undesirable facial hair growth.

for Premature ejaculation: 1. medical treatment: Tablet tadapox or dejac-T 1 tablet 1 hour before sex 2. sex therapy: when u think u r about to come, just stop moving and ask ur partner to stop moving as well and stay still for 30 seconds. In 70%, these technique works. Other technique is to ask the partner to squeeze the glans penis with thumb and finger tightly just when u think u r about to come. This will prevent u from ejaculating.unfortunately there is no way u can increase ur penis except plastic surgery. however u must know that average indian penis size is 4 inches when erect and a penis of just 2 inches is sufficient to satisfy a female.

All TM sex in my mind I trying but cnnt avoid the thinking

Dr. Pranay Gandhi

Sexology

masturbate and don't worry. its normal. Masturbatiion or nightfall is natural in males and is 100% safe and healthy. The semen is produced daily and sperms r produced every 72hrs so they have to come out of the body for the newer one to get produced. If u r masturbating twice a week u wont be having nightfall. Masturbation reduces stress and anxiety and relaxes the mind causing sleep which people think as weakness. So enjoy it instead of feeling guilty about it and taking undue stress.
