boob hair, part 2
hey, i know a question has been asked about this before... but i'm 17 and i have a lot of hair around my nipples and all over my breats... they are all dark, but only about 5 or 7 are really thick and dark around each nipple... is that abnormal? i read a magazine article that said it might not be... i also sometimes get one or two thick hairs on my chin, it's weird. Thanks for the help in advance :)
U may have PCOS (polycystyc ovarian syndrome) with this condition some women get hirsutism (excess body hair) due to male hormones (testosterone) its a pain in the ***!! Losing wieght will reduce testosterone :)
Im nearly 16 ive had it for like 3 years i also have that on my boobs and some on my chest .. I feel like such a man.. I get so embarrassed about it.. I hate plucking them and sometimes they become ingrown :/ I have scabs on my boobs too :( do you ever think it will get better later in life?
I have them as well.... it's kind of a pain to pluck them -- but I try any ways. Is it better to have the nipple area wet then dry?
Do not shave! I know some people say it doesnt make it worse..but it does! Beleive me. Please dont shave.
oh i get those too, and i had one near my belly button once. i'm blonde so they stand out quite a bit - until i take out my trusty tweezers and show them who's boss. i asked my doctor once, thinking maybe they are something more serious, but she said it's just from weird distribution of pigment.
I get those wayward hairs myself. Pluck them. When they grow back...and they will, pluck them again. Unless you can afford laser hair removal, this is your only real option. If you do it in private and don't tell anyone...no one even needs to know. I've been married for 8 years. He's never seen a chest hair on me! When we've grow old enough that he can't see so well anymore...all bets are off! LOL
its normal, I get some facial random hairs too. And the occasional spare hair on a breast.
It differs from woman to woman, I know a friend with hairy nipples too.
I dont know of any treatment or cures or anything..but shave or nair, ..wax sounds to painful. cept for the face...
