The only way to handle this is go on an anti-androgen. You will need a doctor, and possibly a therapists signing off on this,

This is not the same as HRT, the anti-androgen therapy for younger transsexual women is beginning to be accepted as a legitimate course of action because it just holds off further masculinization without making permanent changes as estrogen HRT does.

Thanks, but aint there other subtle means of eliminating rather than anti-androgen or HRT cos i know one would require to be on frequent medication if the former applies, could it be itchy too?

im sure in downtown lagos or abuja youll be abel to find a dermitologist that offers it. you can buy hpme electrolosist kis but are very time consuming and not very popular since laser hair removal became affordable

Can't believe that you want to avoid a beard.i've got a smooth face and it kinda makes me look too young for my age.
Oh well,guess you want to enjoy a smooth face like me.

@aieromon,
I believe if one tenth of the average nigerian guy/man had a way, he would prevent growing stressy beards. Well maybe cos i voiced mine out but that's what i prefer (lookin younger than my age,) aint that spicey? I no wan acquire methuselar kind of beard when not necesary,

I want to advice you not to remove your beards permanently because that is against your nature.Rather try to handle it as an adult that you are.Thats how others too handle it. Remember Michael Jackson and what eventually killed him.A word is enough for the wise.

@Poster there is a way to thin out or remove hairs permanently "Electrolysis" it can be very costly and if not done well it can scar.


I purchased a home kit and books I removed the hairs on my legs (I hated shaving them) I found it quite easy to do but some find it impossible to do themself.

You can also look around to see if you have any practitioners in you location.
