un-natural hair growth
i have a really bad problem with unnatural hair growth on my face in particular and other places on my body. on my face the hair grows really coarse and i hav tried waxing but it makes it worse,i know jus pluck it out with a tweezer. what do you think can be causing this and is there a way to control or prevent it. Because it is very embrassing. Help.

In many cases this may be normal and often runs in families. It would be advisable to have some tests though, as there are conditions which can cause excessive hair growth, such as PCOS and adrenal tumours.
