Would see an endocrinologist - most common cause is PCOS - sometimes medications can help.  Also laser treatments or electrolysis.

Hi, see an endocrinologist for evaluation and treatment.

If you have a lot of hair, the most effective way (though it is a little expensive) is laser hair removal.

See the dr.first and then work out how to handle the hair.

Best wishes.
