hey guys, it seems that facial hair growth should take a while, but i am already growing it 4 days after starting T, i shaved my face 3 days ago and when i look closely in the mirror i can see hairs growing back, they are very dark and thick, so i don't think it's peach fuzz, ( it usually takes a couple weeks for peach fuzz to grow back)
i also have hair growing on the back of my hands and further up my arms

can this actually happen this fast or am i a freak

I seriously doubt there are real changes in hair growth after only 4 days, mate - but not impossible.  Hair often appears thicker/darker after shaving - mine always did.  Congrats on starting T, by the way

I went to the doctor today and he confirmed that i am indeed growing corse male facial hair. 5 days after starting t

Coarse hair isn't necessarily "male". It just means those hair follicles have testosterone sensitive receptors; females can have it too, even without PCOS.
I'm assuming you must've had some facial hair growth before, because five days on testosterone isn't going to magically give you facial hair.
