Why some men can't grow beards?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

What can cause slow growth of beard in young guys?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am a 28 years old woman and I am obese. My weight is 95 kg and my height is 5 feet 4 inches. I have had facial hair for quite a few years. Five years ago I got my hormones tested including thyroid and all were in the normal range. I opted for laser hair removal. Even after eight sittings, do hairs grow back in a few months? Is my weight not decreasing?
