hey ihatehair,
i can feel your pain! have you tried taking an anti-androgen (a medicine that helps inhibit excess hair growth and control acne)? i'm sure if you ask your doctor about those kinds of medicines, they can tell you what kind is right for you. I used to have a lot of excess hair growth but started taking Spironolactone (an anti-androgen) and it's keeping my acne under control as well as the excess hair.

I know it's an emotional strain as well; my mom was more embarrassed to see me with excess hair where I just didn't mind it and covered it up, but her embarrassment led to my insecurity. If you ever need anyone to talk to, please send me a PM (once you have enough posts) or reply to this message!
