Nothing of these will remove hair completely. It can only make it thinner and grow slower. The one way to totally remove facial and body hair is electrolysis and laser hair removal.

Testosterone causes men to grow hair on their face at puberty and later in life they lose hair on the top of their head. Once the hair is in place and growing, Testosterone has little or no noticeable effects. Blocking testosterone will have no effect on facial hair. Blocking Testosterone in later life may prevent losing hair on the top of your head.

Women on the other hand only gain hair growth in the armpits and pubic area after puberty. Estrogens have little effect on hair growth on the top or face of you head.

Does progesterone affect hair growth?

Women's lower T levels do eventually cause some terminal type hairs to grow on the face. Most all middle aged women do something to remove some chin or mustache area hairs.

No regular hormone stops those hairs once they convert to terminal hai type. I have read of some facial treatments that are supposed to slow or stop hair growth so long as it continues to be used. I have no idea as to their effectiveness. The claims I read said it contained natural plant based substances that would stop the hair root from triggering a growth cycle. Again I have no idea if it is really something that works.

It can if taken in high enough doses in pre-op transwomen, slow down growth and affect thickness and color of hair as it will reduce T production from gonads.

Nothing is going to make you lose already established facial hair...except laser removal....HRT can only make it grow slower.   One thing I did  notice for me at  least  is I me being 35 I was developing  beard hairs on my  cheeks,  I have  always been able to grow a goatee beard but as I aged  before HRT the thick beard hairs  were coming  in they dont  grow noticeably any more.

I was thinking head hair.

If progesterone is able to reduce T pre-op, yes, it can stop head hair from falling. That's all.

Do you mean progesterone is able to reduce T Before the orchiectomy is that right

Yes, in sufficiently high doses.

Clin Endocrinol (Oxf). 2003 Apr;58(4):506-12.

"Both progesterone and desogestrel administration resulted in decreases in the concentration of both LH and FSH secretion, as well as testosterone. Analysis of the pulsatile nature of LH secretion indicated that both treatments reduced LH pulse amplitude, and that progesterone reduced LH pulse frequency. Progesterone, but not desogestrel, treatment also reduced the increase in LH secretion in response to GnRH."
