I am 25 and when i was about 22 i got like one or two neck and chin hairs my skin was amazing in high school all my friends hated me for it now w/ the hairs i have acne on my chin alot too.At 22  i weighed about 190 but i am also 5'9. well recently ive lost alot of weight i have a very damanding job,school schedule,and family life.I now weigh 137 and i look great but my neck and chin hairs are worse than ever i thought being over weight caused these problems not losing it,it seems to be worse on my right side,i have no health care and i need some advise on somthing over the counter i can do w/out tearing my skin up.plucking has made it infected,my skin is very sensitive i do not know if its hormones,stress,or diet but,i need some advise and remedies.

Hello, sorry to hear about your troubles. I too have a similar issue. I have accredited it to birth control. I recently went off and hoping to see a change. I also use medical marijuana for anxiety  and both of those things have hair growth as a side effect. Do you use either of these things? I am thinking at your age you may very well be on birth control, but I don't know if you are. You might want to just step back and look at the whole picture, what has changed since the hair growth? Usually it is hormone related, so if you aren't taking birth control it may also be genetic. Do the women in your family have a similar problem? Your stress levels from your hectic schedule and significant weight loss may have caused a hormonal imbalance. I am sorry to hear that you don't have health care, you can't apply for state assisted health coverage? Again, I don't know what state you live in, but a lot of states will help especially if you are a student. A lot of universities have health clinics that are covered as long as you are a student. Look into it because I really think if it is a big enough issue for you then you should go to the doctor. Below is a link that might be helpful to you, but otherwise, good luck.
