You are having the issue of hirsutism which refers to thick and excessive hair growth on certain parts of body such as jaw line, chin, neck upper lips (sometimes also chest abdomen thighs etc) is caused by increase in androgen hormone in the body. U need life style modification, dietary modification and 30-40min daily workout. If overweight, reduction of weight is essential. Hair reducing/removing techniques are required too. Anti androgen medication may be required if no improvement.

yes I face the same issue even on chest and abdomen and stress about it.As I already mention that I bring alot of changes in lifestyle and diet like stop eating junk food from last 8-9 months just take it occasionally and take every meal in portion.Take nuts as a snack and not workout but walk for one hour daily after dinner from last 2 years.But still I don't see any visible improvement still the vellus hair changes into thick hair.I don't know what to do abou it

last 5-6 years?
and you are 20 now
so actually these hairs are in your genetic make up which are manifesting with the period of time after puberty,,,,the growth you told is not to be worry because this average of body hair growth is quite normal....all you need to do is shave or wax on specific intervals

recently I attend a wedding ceremony and the 3-4 hairs after wedding become long and thick on my stomach.I don't know why I think it is due to what I eat.

just calm your mind 3-4 hairs are not a big deal and thickness is the normal character of every single fresh grown hair...
nothing is associated with eating or routine...you just maintain your waxing routine
