So I have started taking Hormones at the age of 19. I only have light hair on the face, very light blonde hair, but not much. There are very few darker ones that I pull out almost every day so that there aren't any visible ever.
So my question now is, as I started 'early', will facial hair stay at this stage or will it increase?

And body hair, that's more my problem, will it decrease?

If your testo levels do not rise hair should stay as it is.

Depending on estrogen levels its possible hair becomes more sparse and thinner.

Many endos strive for values of 180-200 pg/ml or above.
If you are below 180-200 pg/ml and levels are raised to at least this level its possible there is less and thinner hair.

Otherwise with body hair home permanent hair removal devices may have some effect.

Facial hair is dependent on testosterone levels. If they are high and you are sensitive to it, you will grow facial hair. This is why some CIS women develop facial hair. If your endo is controlling the levels correctly, your facial hair shouldn't get worst. Feel free when you get a blood workup to ask for the results before the test are run. It's easy to add the test and it cost little to run it.

thanks for the answers, but I don't quite get it.

In a recent test before HRT I had a estradiol level of 15 and a testo level of about 5-6

and I am taking estrogen tablets, so does it mean, if the estradiol level will stay at 180-200, then it's okay?

You may edit out dosage ...

Ok lets say your levels were before hrt 15 and are 60 pg/ml now.
Those would be levels in the menopausal range.
If you would raise estrogen levels well into the female range, to 180 pg/ml, it is possible body hair may get more sparse and hairs get a bit finer still.
