Coarse facial hair and acne

Usually, I am a hairy person since childhood and I had accepted myself that way. But for past 5 years I have more coarse, thick and long hair growing below chin and neck area. I tried many home DIYs initially. Tried waxing, threading, plucking which leads to pimples or scars. Since I am light skinned, hair are more visible. I had 9 laser hair removal sessions in pre covid era but it dint help at all. Also, sometimes in a month I do get 1 or 2 red bump cyst like acnes mostly on chicks, nose or chin which leaves marks. Could it be hormonal? I dont have any menstrual problems. No weight gain or any other noticible symptoms. What tests should I do and what doctor should I consult?

Pancreas calculi

Hi My recent MRCP reveals that I have calculi in Main Pancreatic Duct alongwith 8 MM dilation. Recently I felt a mild pain for few days due to which I could not able to eat properly which resulted to weight loss of around 5 kg. Now, want to know whether should I go for ERCP or wait till the seviour pain occurs  as heard that once the ERCP is done it may irritate the pancreas. I did not have seviour pain from the last 5 years. Still if I have to go for ERCP should I go for Specialized Hospital like AIG, Hyderabad or I can find the specialized Endocrinologist in Delhi Itself?
