Hair around breast (areola) is it normal? I’m 16. And I'm really hairy. I’ve hairs all over my body, I'm just really worried that I have too much astrogen because as fas as I know, girls dont have hairs on their breasts.

what should i do?
Please help!


Answer:
There is nothing wrong with you. Most women have hair around their breast. It's perfectly natural. If its particularly thick, or noticeable to you, you can pluck it. This is preferable to shaving it, plucking it with a tweezer doesn't injured at all, shaving will give you stubble as it grows back. Honestly, it's not like anyone will see it, you're only 16. Most guys wouldn't care if there was hair there, they don't even notice it. If you do see it as a problem when you're older, go ahead and pluck it.

You don't have too much estrogen. Testosterone is what controls the hair growth. As for the rest of your body - again, when you're with a decent guy, who genuinely adores you, hair growth isn't an issue. He has hair on his arms and legs too, he wouldn't expect you to expect him to shave it, would he? But again, if it is something you're not comfortable with you can remove it.

It's a myth that shaving makes your hair grow back thicker. You can shave (use plenty of shaving gel, reduces red spots, and gives you smoother legs/arms), use a hair removal cream like Nair (it uses chemicals to break down the hair), was (which is very painful), or use an epilator (this is the more permanent option, but again can be painful. It is like shaving, requires no shaving cream, and plucks the hairs out from the roots).


Answer:
Apparently 1 in 6 women naturally have hairs on their breasts, but all the breasts I've ever seen/tasted didn't have any. Statistically speaking I should have seen at least three pairs of hairy breasts up close, but I guess that women must pluck/wax their breasts because they also find it humiliating.

Answer:
It sounds to me that you may have POS (polycystic ovarian syndrome ) symptoms include: irregular or light periods, or no periods at all,
problems getting pregnant,
weight gain,
acne, and
excessive hair growth (hirsutism).
Symptoms usually become apparent in your late teens or early twenties.
It is usually apparent in overweight people, so if you are medically overweight than losing a little could help your condition greatly.
Anti-male hormone drugs such as cyproterone acetate and spironolactone can be used to block the 'masculine effects' of polycystic ovarian syndrome.

You’ll need to see your gp for a diagnosis but there are remedies that will help you, best of luck


Answer:
Completely, perfectly normal! Everyone has them, just some are really light. If they bother you can pluck them (ouch!) or just trim/shave them. I personally just shave 'em off a couple times a week.

And its testosterone that makes you hairy. Yes, women normally have testosterone in their bodies too.

Answer:

Answer:
girls do have hair that can grow around their areola. some have more than others. i would have to see it to determine if it is too much.

Answer:
It's normal for people to have hair everywhere.

I’ve been shaving mine since my teens. Nobody notices.
My husband doesn't even know.


Answer:
Yes it's normal if it's a lot of hair then you just have too much hormone. You can always go see a physician if your still worried.
