Ask Dr. about Vaniqa: One can ask her doctor about vaniqa, which is used to slow the growth of unwanted hair on the face in women, usually around the lips or under the chin. Vaniqa (eflornithine) works by blocking a natural substance that is needed for hair to grow and is located in your hair follicle. Of course, it works better in some people than in others.

See a doctor: It is most likely hormonal. You should see your ob-gyn or even an endcrinologist.
