Hello,

It is normal to have some small pale hair over the face, it is called as Vellus hair. The distribution pattern, color, and thickness vary from person to person.

However, conditions like PCOS, or other hormonal imbalance in the body can cause change in the hair growth pattern.

The medication Meprate contains progesterone hormone that helps to treat PCOS, and is less likely the symptoms. In addition, lifestyle modification is also a key component in treating PCOS.

I would suggest you to eat no added hormone meat and free-range poultry, organic food.

Avoid carbonated drinks, sugar, excess alcohol, smoking, stress, and soy products.

A healthy lifestyle along with medication will help you achieve hormonal balance; that in turn will resolve the symptoms of PCOS.

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

Take care

Regards,
