Dr. R.K Singh MBBS , Diabetology

No, Metabol doesn't lead to hair loss. In fact, it can be useful for the treatment of alopecia in men who develop hair loss because of taking testosterone therapy.

Yes, Metabol may cause acne. For treating acne, one must talk to a doctor. There are many over the counter creams available for treating acne such as topical antibiotics, creams containing ingredients like retinoids, salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, glycolic acid, isotretinoin, etc. There are many herbal creams also available which contain ingredients like fuller's earth, aloe vera, etc. However, it is best to see a doctor who is likely to prescribe a cream as per the skin type and severity of one's acne. Acne can be prevented or managed by eating a low carb, low fat and high protein diet, by treating hormonal issues and staying stress-free.

Metabol causes fluid retention. Fluid retention can be prevented and managed by eating less salt, increasing magnesium intake, avoiding refined carbs, taking dandelion supplements and taking a diuretic (a class of medicine which improve the kidney function).

Dr. Uday Nath Sahoo MBBS , Internal Medicine

Low levels of testosterone represent a condition in males known as hypogonadism. Metabol might be helpful in hypogonadism as testosterone replacement therapy because it is a synthetic analog of the naturally occurring testosterone which works in almost similarly to natural testosterone in the body.
