Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Fewer facial hair growth is mainly due to improper development of secondary sexual characters from lack of testosterone hormone.
Instead of applying oils or hearbs, get hormone testosterone levels checked along with follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels.
Kindly consult Andrologist with the report for further evaluation and management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
