For Hirsutism "Vaniqa worked great for a few years. Recently, there was a long period (months) when you couldn't get it. Now it's back, but it doesn't work as well. Very disappointed."

For Hirsutism "I just started using this less than a week ago, it is covered under my insurance. I hope it works for me. I've had unwanted chin hair growth for over 30 years, and it was hard for me."
