Have Zero Facial Hair. How To Grow Facial Hairs?

Hey,
This has bothered me for years and years.
I am 22 years old from the pakistan.
I have like, zero facial hair.

Its bugged me for ages, and im sure its a result of having low testosterone levels.

Some people say 'its just genetics'. However, how can this be true?
For example, when a woman takes testosterone (FTM's) they always seem to get good facial hair. Surely its not 'in THEIR genetics', either.... They were born women!
i had my puberty on the right time at the age of 15 i guess.. i have no chest hairs so as no facial hairs. but at the bottom of my body i have large thick hairs on my legs.
what do i do to get my facial hairs because sometimes i feel weird while sitting around my friends

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
As long as your secondary sexual characteristics are normal you need not worry.
If your axillary hair and pubic hair is thick and if your voice is masculine there is no need to worry.
Some people are born with less facial hair. Minoxidil gel 5% can be applied twice a day over mustache and beard areas to stimulate thin almost invisible hairs to grow thicker.Get this prescribed by your dermatologist.
Hope this helped
Take care
