PCOS and hairy face.

[Hiccups1]

Ladies help! What do you all do to get rid of facial hair? It’s grows so quick! I’m scared to shave as worried it’ll come back darker (although I have a fair few patches that are really dark) I get so embarrassed, currently use no!no! And plucking but I don’t find it massively effective. Any suggestions/recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Get used to it in afraid.

Bleaching may work for a bit to hide it.

Go on one of the anti androgen pills like Dianette or Yasmin, gp will likely have to check with specialist endocrinology first.

Or if not trying for kids spriolactone can help.

Also two cups of spearmint tea a day seems to slow it a bit but that might be just me 🤣

Facial epilator. Hurts like hell at first but feels amazing afterwards.

I epilate mine. Although pain levels vary throughout the month. If its unbearable I shave it.

Unfortunately shaving is the only thing that works for me

I shave every morning and get 5 o’clock shadow, so if I go out at night I need to shave again. Someone said try epilating so I’ve just bought an epilator so hopefully it will stop me from shaving twice a day. Even every other day would be better. Best of luck Op 💐

Can you afford a laser machine? I've got a Phillips lumea. Life saver. I've also had lots of laser sessions at a salon years ago. I no longer have the ' shadow ' and anything that the laser hasn't got rid of I just shave now and again.
