Hi: Excess facial hair or hirsutism is usually due to excess of androgens in female. It may or may not be associated with menstrual irregularity. If your electrolysis did not work, there could all probability you can have hormone imbalance. I would suggest you to consult an endocrinologist and get your hormonal profile done.
