Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

You might be suffering from a polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD) or hormonal imbalance. It is commonly seen in girls of your age. You should reduce your weight and adopt a healthy lifestyle. Take an ultrasound pelvis and do a hormonal profile test. Consult your physician for evaluation. Medications are given after the diagnosis. Hair growth can be controlled by treatment.
