Редактирование: "And suddenly, the hair will grow": Dangerous hormonal creams and ointments (раздел)

Active substances in hormonal drugs, as a rule, are the corticosteroids (prednisone, hydrocortisone, flumethasone, betamethasone, methylprednisolone and others) are hormones secreted by the adrenal glands to regulate processes in the body. However, any medicine is not only the active component but also the means conducive to its delivery to the right place. For example, there are tablets that dissolve in the stomach — and there are pills with sheath, resistant to gastric acid that dissolves only in the intestine. Same with skin preparations: if you create a contraceptive patch, it is important that hormones are penetrated through the skin and absorbed into the blood, in the manufacture of steroid creams, ointments or lotions manufacturers focus on the fact that the effect was local. This tool allows you to eliminate the itching, pain or swelling, but the absorption of the hormones into the blood (at least in an amount which will give some effect) does not occur. 

The problem often faced by the doctors is the number of false information on the Internet. On the one hand, the man worried about something, begins to search for the treatment tips, and as a result, some self-prescribed a hormone treatment, but not those that are needed, or in the incorrect mode. On the other — even those who went to a specialist, start to put the appointment into question, turning again to the articles in the Network. The first rule of the use of hormonal therapy — they should appoint a professional who in the future will follow the treatment.
