Is this hirsutism?

Is this hirsutism?

I have a lot of body hair, but I also want to mention that I’m South Asian. But for the past 5-6 years, I’ve been seeing an increase in the hair I have under my chin. I attached a photo, but it couldn’t capture everything. Most of the hairs are thin but long, and there’s some darker ones.

To note, my sister has PCOS and her hair was much darker and thicker around her chin, but mine is thinner, so I still don’t know if this is considered “normal” or if I have an underlying medical condition.

Please let me know if anyone has any advice or suggestions!
