How To Promote Manly Hair Growth?
Hi. I m 27 years old. But I do not have my beard and not even a single body hair in chest. Also my mustache is very thin and not as thick as a normal guy should have. I feel so bad inside me on seeing other guys having a great mustache and beard even in their small ages compared to me. I would like to grow/get my mustache so thick and want my beard to grow somehow, but for sure i need them. Kindly help me on this

Hello,
The growth of hair on body and face is under the control of hormones and is determined genetically. I would recommend you to get your hormonal profile done.
Meanwhile, you can start applying minoxidil 5 per cent lotion on the affected areas of the scalp twice daily for 3-4 months to see any significant results.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
