Hair growth: Hair growth is genetic. Have your doctor perform a hormonal evaluation to rule out male hormone deficiency. If normal, there is nothing you can do to stimulate facial hair growth. There is no reliable evidence that Biotin or any other dietary supplement can stimulate facial hair growth.
