Question : XXXXXXX for testosterone blocker?

I have excessive hair on my face and body and it is literally ruining my life. My mother and grandma have the same problem, so it’s genetic.

I also have small breasts and an insane sex drive.

Do you think XXXXXXX would help?

Brief Answer:
Spironolactone is effective as a testosterone blocker.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I understand your concern.

Sipronolactone is commonly used as testosterone blocker.

It also has some estrogen like effects.

So, it will also be effective in treating the facial hairs and small breasts.

Due to the diuretic properties you may also have increased diuresis while using this medication.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
