Find a good doctor in your area and get your hormone levels tested. It sounds like you are insulin resistant and your androgen levels are elevated. You should look into the GI Diet..

There is also other information if you do a search. You can also try taking saw palmetto and spearmint tea for your hair growth and acne.
