Thick body hair

Hello! I am a 23-year-old girl and I don't like my body hair. It's somewhat thick. When I get excited, the hair follicles bump out of my skin and the hairs stand upright. It's specially annoying a day or two after shaving. Is something wrong with my hair? Is there a way to improve this?

Also, I have signs of hair on my skin even after shaving. I mean, there are small brown dots right where hair comes out, and they don't disappear even with shaving.

Could these be due to hormone disorders? Are they possibly related to para-ovary cysts?

I'd appreciate your help.

Best,
Mahsa

This could be polycystic ovaries. The hormones are unbalanced and you have make a female hormones. This generates body hair when not wanted. Under ur chin, above ur lip belly anyway and everywhere. I would go to doctors and tell him what's going on snd maybe suggest polycystic ovaries x good luck
