How do you tell if it's going away?

They look less prominent. But they're near the genitals and I can't tell if its the hair growth that's covering them (can't shave!!!) or they're actually reducing. I don't see any scabbing. Can it really go away without any scabbing? Like just reduce in size and disappear?

Has anyone tried toothpaste for MC?

I have sometimes tried toothpaste on my acne and though not recommended, it works wonders. Wondering if anyone tried it on MC.

Is this MC

I observed 3 spots in March, after I shaved. I thought it was razor bumps and avoided shaving for a while. Next time I shaved (in June), it had increased to about 10. I consulted my PCP and they said it looked like ingrowns and there could be a low chance that it's molluscum. But idk if ingrowns would last that long and would multiply. All my research points to molluscum but also I don't see a "dimple" per say. Some details:

- no pain, itching, or symptoms.

- was last sexually active in July 2025 (around 8 months before I first saw it).

- I contacted my last partner and he denied having it (he could very well be unaware or lying).
