I have been dealing with hirsutism for 6 years. What is my best treatment option? (Photo)

lovelycay
I suffer from PCOS and hirisutism. Age group 18-25. I grow excessive and dark hair on the back of my thigh, chest, stomach and face. I get sugar hair removal on my face every 8 days and on my body every 6 weeks. The hair on my face seems to be growing at a faster pace. Is there any medication I can take? Hormone tablets? Is Laser Hair removal the best option? Between treatments how will I conceal the hair if treatments are every 6 or more weeks? Does hydroqunione cream increase hair growth?
