A member asked:
Can you tell me how long until prednisone causes facial hair growth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's unpredictable: I trust you're taking Prednisone for a good reason as it's dangerous and nasty stuff. Some women get facial hair growth as one of many side effects, and it's probably the least troublesome of the bunch. Best talk with your own physicain.
