No: Lotion and vitamins will not help. Spironolactone is usually effective but you may have to take for up to 9 months before seeing results. There are other more powerful anti-androgen medicines you might ask your doctor about. Laser hair removal may also be a better solution for unwanted hair. Best of luck.

Maybe: Vaniqa, but it is an expensive prescription and takes a while to work. A cream applied 2-3 x day. Takes 4-8 weeks for results and hair regrows when d/c.
