A member asked:
What to do if hair from head to toe but still don't grow a full beard. why is my puberty out of order?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's not: The location and amount of body hair, including the beard, is determined by genetics. The beard hair comes from a different part of the genetic code from hair elsewhere on the body and some men have little growth throughout their life. There are several genetic populations (such as Asian and Native American) that have very little facial hair.
