Hi

Diet and exercise are the two important aspects of weight reduction. Calculate your body mass index and number of kilos you desire to lose. Calculate your daily calorie intake and reduce your calorie intake based on your activity levels.

Physical activity is also important for weight reduction.A combination of cardio exercises, weight training and yoga can be done on alternate days to reduce weight faster.Check your weight every week and plan your activity accordingly.

Rule out Hypothyroidism which can also cause hormonal imbalance, weight gain and hair loss.Monitor your pcod with regular scans.Many cosmetic treatments are available for facial hair which can be done to reduce hair growth.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
