Hello;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
Absence of facial hairs till age of 23 can be genetic (hereditary) or it may be due to hormonal problem which is in your case.That is the reason you have been prescribed testoviron 250 every month.Since you are still not having proper growth it will be better to get the testosterone levels checked and then consult your doctor .After assessing the blood levels of testosterone your doctor will suggest you whether you need to take increased dose or same will do;so please consult your doctor.
Thanks
