Being a Man: What do you mean less than normal. Millions of men have thin or thinner beards or no growth of much facial hair. This is common and not a disease or even a medical condition.

No: This is likely a genetic variant which means your genetics dictate that you have less facial hair than others. Rarely, nutritional or hormonal deficiencies could account for lack of hair - blood tests could elucidate a possible etiology.
