I have noticed hair on my chin recently, however i am started on microlite 100/20 microgram pill, will that effect the hair growth?

Yes: Taking birth control pill decreases the amount of free testosterone (hair causing hormone) in your blood stream. So, yes, birth control pills will help to diminish your hair growth.
