View allI'm 23 years old and still can't grow a beard or moustache. I've been waiting for years and nothing's happening. Can you give me some advice on what I should do about this?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a delay in facial hair growth. One possible solution is to use Minoxidil solution 5% twice daily on the areas where you want hair growth. Additionally, you can consider taking Biotin supplements 10,000 mcg daily to promote hair growth. Make sure to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new medications or supplements.
