Anna if you're not planning to become pregnant, you could ask your dr. to put you on Spironolactone for 3-6 months (to start). The medication, while it is used to lower BP in people who need that, diminishes the skin and hair response to excess androgens in the bloodstream. I've been on it for several years and had most of my acne clear up and I have fewer hairs to pluck off my jawline (except for those 5 stubborn ones that keep coming back for more). If you get onto Spironolactone you will need to drink extra water, as it's a diuretic, and avoid pregnancy because it can alter development of male babies.
