Thanks for posting your query to XXXXXXX
Hair on the face is sex hormone dependent. If you have moustach haor, axillary and pubic hair that means your hormone status is XXXXXXX at the central level. However there maybe some problem at the locally at the hair follicle level. We usually do thyroid profile, dheas level and testosterone levels.
If all are normal u may have to try
1. 5 to 10% minoxidil locally twice a day for six months.
2. If u are still not satisfied you may go for grafting.
Good day
