What Causes Excessive Fine Hair Growth On Arms And Face?

Hi my testosterone levels have been tested but I have excessive but fine hair growth on my arms and face. I ve been to my gp and they tell me my testosterone is normal but my LH is low and cannot do anything to help with the excess hair growth. I ve not always had this (occurred in the last two years) and it makes me feel quite depressed and loosing confidence.

The excessive hairs on face and upper extremities is absolutely normal thing. It is hereditary,so do not worry and do not loose confidence.It is there in many people. It is not a disease..so, no treatment is needed.

Hope this helps.
