Thick Facial Hair On Upper Lips And Chin. Feel Depressed And Angry. Remedy?

Hi, I am 31 female and a mother of 2 years old daughter. I started to have thicker facial hair on my upper-lip, and chin. Hairs on my chin are getting coarser and darker. I too don't have interest in sex (not easily aroused). I feel depressed and easily get angry. Please help me. Hairs are very obvious.....Very shameful when my young teenage students started to question it in silly way.

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for using healthcare magic.
I have gone through your available history.

Decreased libido might be because of depressed feelings.

For hair, You should consult dermatologist to evaluate the cause of that. Doctor may advise you to go for endocrinal assay to find the reason. There are many treatments available for removal of hair. Your dermatologist will give you further guidance for the same.

For stress and depression, You can do stress management, counselling and psychotherapy. If all these does not work, you should consult the psychiatrist for detailed evaluation and treatment.

Thanks

Dear
Worrying about god provided body features for cosmetic appearance has become fashion of the day.
Your problem is embarassing, even though.
From time immortal, ladies used turmeric paste for excess hair on face and other parts.
It is helpful.
Now there are several surgicl interventions.
Feeling anxious about cosmetic appearance is another matter.
There are people with handicaps, without eye, fingers, hands, legs etc
You are well cared for by god. You 'just' have this.
Forget about it.
Wish you good future.
