Question 1

facial hair growth?

Accepted Answer

Hormones: Certain birth control pills with high hormone contents can cause unwanted facial hair growth. As can various hormone disorders. Sometimes it happens for no known reason, when everything is "normal." let your family doctor or gynecologist rule out the treatable causes.

Question 2

how do i reduce facial hair growth?

Accepted Answer

Vaniqa: You can use vaniqa cream twice a day on the affected area. Laser hair removal also works.

Question 3

how can i stimuate facial hair growth?

Accepted Answer

You really can't: Some men, especially those of us who are naturally smooth, simply won't be able to grow a thick beard. There's nothing you can do about this, many (most?) women prefer it, and you are unlikely to become bald as you get older. The one thing over which you have total control is your level of fitness, which is 95% of looks for a man. Best wishes.

Question 4

could lifestyle affect facial hair growth?

Accepted Answer

Basically no: Whether you're male or female. One exception -- obesity and lack of exercise can exacerbate some (not all) of the hormonal problems that may cause this in a young woman.

Question 5

tips for more facial hair growth and help?

Accepted Answer

Don't know a way: to specifically target facial hair. For healthy hair growth:  Get adequate sleep,avoid excess sugar &amp; fat in diet, v carbonated beverages, eat enough protein, exercise regularly. Biotin helps (but don't over do it). Insure you have adequate Iron (think kale &amp; other dark green leafies), Omega 3 fatty acids (think walnuts)  and vitamin E (fruits &amp; vegetables).

Question 6

what can i take to reduce facial hair growth?

Accepted Answer

Facial Hair: Eflornithine(vaniqua) is used to slow the growth of unwanted hair on the face in women, usually around the lips or under the chin. Eflornithine works by blocking a natural substance that is needed for hair to grow and is located in your hair follicle (the sac where each hair grows). This medication is by prescription.  There is also laser hair removal for black or brown hair.

Question 7

are there any ways to boost facial hair growth?

Accepted Answer

Facial Hair: If your facial hair comes in slower than you would like or if you are trying to give the appearance of more facial hair, there are a few options that are worth a try. Whether you choose testosterone treatments or over-the-counter applications, results vary from person to person---and some individuals may ultimately find it impossible to grow facial hair or increase the rate at which it grows.

Question 8

tell me some medicine for fastest facial hair growth?

Accepted Answer

Won't work: Congratulations on being almost a man. How thick your beard will be is determined by your genes, and no magic medicine will change this. While many men envy a man with a thick beard and abundant body hair, in the us most women prefer a smooth, light-bearded man and he is less likely to go bald later. Enjoy whatever nature has given you.

Question 9

can you tell me how i can stimuate facial hair growth?

Accepted Answer

You can't: If you're normally masculinized by your hormones, how thick your beard is reflects your genetic heritage. Thick-bearded, hairy-chested guys go bald faster than other guys -- just look around you. Justin bieber can't grow a beard but this doesn't seem to bother him. Many women prefer a less scratchy man. Embrace and enjoy whatever mother nature gave you.

Question 10

are there any drugs for increasing facial hair growth?

Accepted Answer

Possible: Could try rogaine, (minoxidil) but would coordinate with a dermatologist.
