Asked By:Payal Darji in England, United Kingdom

Im indian, female, with somewhat light skin and dark hair. I don't have pcos. Its just a hormonal issue. Ive heard here and elsewhere horror stories of hair coming back worse. Ive been given hormone pills yasmin. Alongside that would laser work? Im depressed. Is it over for me? Is there zero hope?
