What can i take to stop facial coarse hair i don't want to do laser?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Limited # of options: Many women suffer from polycystic ovarian syndrome (pcos) which often causes coarse hair growth pattern similar to that of a man. Successful treatment of pcos, which is very difficult, will help. Spironolactone may help some folks, but will take many months to see small changes. Waxing/plugging or electrolysis can help too. This is a difficult problem and laser is probably easiest. Good luck.
