Women with hirsutism grow hair on their faces, breasts and stomachs. This can cause great distress. The hair grows because they have abnormally high levels of the ‘masculinising’ androgen hormones. Androgens travel around the body in the blood stream, and a key way of treating hirsutism is to reduce the level of these androgens.
Data just published in Phytotherapy Research shows that drinking two cups of spearmint tea a day for five days could reduce the level of androgens in women with hirsutism.
“Current therapies use either oral contraceptives to suppress androgen production, or medications such as spironolactone that prevent the body responding to androgen – but this study shows that spearmint could be a good natural alternative for women who have mild symptoms,” says researcher Mehmet Numan Tamer who acts as spokesperson for the research team. The research was carried out at the Suleyman Demirel University, Isparta, Turkey.
In the trials the herbal tea was made by pouring a cup (250ml) of boiling water over 1 heaped teaspoon (5g) of dried leaves, and leaving it for 5 to 10 mins.
The team decided to study the effects of spearmint on hirsutism because of previous reports that extracts of the spearmint plant (Mentha spicata Labiatae) could reduce libido in men. A possible reason for this reduced libido could have been that spearmint was reducing their androgen level. Other research had shown that these extracts reduced androgen levels in rats.
“We now need to do further studies to test the reliability of this finding, and to see the extent to which the reduced androgens do help women with mild hirsutism,” says Professor Tamer.

Hi all,
I had camel legss..and..camle everything else..
i’ll tell u what worked for me..
1.fennel seed supplements ,or if u dont wanto buy those u can make fennel seed tea by boiling a teaspoon of fennel/cup of water (the minute water starts boiling,cover and steep for 5-10 min,
2.fenugreek seed supplement,or u can purchase fenugreek seeds and boil same as the previous example..
3.saw palmetto supplements
I took theis combination of supplements
and…
i made a skin oil using (cyperus rotundus) ….the part of the plant used is the Rhizomes which r nodules near the roots
they grind it into a fine brown powder..dunno where u can get it if u dont live in a middle eastern country,but u can ask around.im sure there r herbalists in every country
what to do with it…….
a)2 tbs of the herb for every 250ml pf olive oil
b)heat oli on med heat ,till its fairly hot..
c)then add herb and instantly turn off heat and pour hot mixture into an airtight ,clean jar…
d) leave in dark place e.g kitchen cupboard for 24hrs..
e) straain usinga small strainer or sieve lined with medical gauze (found at drugstores and pahrmacies)..
F) store in clean,airtight bottle
g) epliate hair using any plucking method (DO NOT SHAVE)..then start applying the oil daily after ur regular bath massaging it in
h) when hair appears again repeat process,,U DONT need to make a new batch at the time of each new epilation..just when u run out..
NOTES:if u remabrrassed to go to a parlour to have ur back waxed ask a close person u trust to..better brave up for this,if u live in a shell of shame>>ull never solve ur problem!!
itl requires patience but,ull be amaazzzzed at the results!!
NOTES:u can make a big batch using 8 tbs of the herb/1Litre oil
that way u wont have to go thru the “toils” of the preparation process as freqyentlyas u would with smaller batches
MOST IMPORTANT NOTE: PATIENCE!!! ull have to use it for a couple of months.. but if u make big bathces ,ull only have to worry about the “epilation when its due!
HAI I AM TOO HAIRY BUT DONT WORRY ,it may be because of excess of male hormone. U must consult doctor .it maybe PCOS .U can have pills for it & a better diet with lesser carbohydrate rich food like pasta potato rice etc & include more fruits .don’t take tension for it & just forget about hair &also try spearmint tea & try the turmeric ,besan ,milk mixture for a few months
elder sister of all for finding solution for my sister’s &brother’s
try ,mix besan & kasturi haldi in equal amount along with milk (make thick paste) apply on those parts and rub off after 15 min, the hair growth will surely reduce and will become thin &light
Hi im 13 year old girl and im pretty shore i have hirsutism i cry every time i look at any part of my body or in the mirror; i have hair everywhere: from my shoulders to my hands, fingers,from my toes to my butt, in the lower part of my back(and its growing towards the top),i have sideburns , my ears(not just around them but really on them),my eyebrows are connecting with my hair, i have little hairs all over my face, and my belly is all covered and connecting with my chest. All hairs in my body are connected. It’s not that they’re long but they’re A LOT. I cry everyday because of this and i don’t know what to do, im only 13 imagine when im 18 im becoming into a monster. Im desperate i don’t know what to do :'(

Japanes girls are always amazing!
Dear Sadly Hairy: I am so sorry. Your comment breaks my heart. I am so sorry and wish I could help. Did you try the Spearmint tea? Have you ever tried permanent electrolysis? I’ve seen the billboards in that regard on the highway. I’m wondering if there is hope in the future through stem cell therapy. Please don’t give up hope. I will pray for you every time I think about it, and I will tell my family to do so, as well. I hope you will feel the love I send to you each night, through prayers, when you lay your head on your pillow. I will call you “Sweetgirl” since I don’t know your name, and God will know. May the Lord bless you and keep you, and may His face shine upon you. As a side note, did you that know your soul is probably, due to the humility of your situation, more beautiful than 90 percent of the population? People like to portray Jesus Christ as being beautiful, but did you know that the prophesy of Christ in Isaiah 53 says otherwise? “For He shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: He hath NO FORM NOR COMELINESS; AND WHEN WE SHALL SEE HIM, THERE IS NO BEAUTY THAT WE SHOULD DESIRE HIM. He was despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from Him; He was despised, and we esteemed Him not.” Isaiah 53:2-3. Jesus Christ is the truest and most sympathetic friend you will find. Listen to the most recent Joni Eareckson Tada cd regarding suffering. She is lovely, and has been through so much, most recently breast cancer. I hope you get this note.
Sincerely,
Janice ([email protected])
like some of you, I have hair in every inch of my body. I bleach/pluck/wax/epilate/shave/nair. I just can’t keep up with it!!! I feel like hidious ugly person. I have scars everywhere from ingrown hairs on my back, stomach, and chest. For some reason I started getting a skin condition called eczema on my legs after nairing for a long time. The more I try to get rid of it the more it scars my skin….and my soul. I can’t even look at myself naked. i have HATE how prickly my skin feels when i take a shower. I am 23 and NEVER had a bf. Idk how I could take the pain if i love someone and they can ‘t accept me. I know if he really loved me, but I won’t blame him if He can’t. I would do the same if i were him cuz there are so many other girls out who are prefectly fine…
Dear Sadly Hairy,
I want you to know that you are not alone. I am 21 years old and I can tell you that I have the same problem. I have hair on my face, chest, back, and legs; every inch you can think of. I feel the same insecurities as you do and just want you to know that you are not the only one, and I hope that there will be a solution soon. Try the spearmint tea, I haven’t yet, but I plan to see if it works soon. I hope all goes well with you.
An alternative or other solution to your hair loss is provillus which is also approved by the FDA
My doctor has referred me to a dermatologist. I don’t have PCOS but I have excessive hairs. Hopefully they can help me. I cried yesterday. I just couldn’t believe how bad things are. All because of hairs.
guess what? last month i went to japan and saw many hairy girls!
apparently, its normal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
omg right?
XD so coll you went to japan but what you mean they were hairy??? O.o
Look at this site hairytrade.com , there are a lot of pictures

I am pretty fair…and I have thick dark hairs growing on my legs. Sigh..its so not sexy. I envy girls in shorts..they look so hot. I do shave..but you can still see the roots on my skin cause I am fair. I have a boyfriend. He knows about my hairy legs, he didnt say much about it..but I have never showed him my hairy legs. The only times he has seen my leg is when I have shaved. But I never let him touch it beccause its so course..ugh. I just hate it.
So does laser work? Cause I really am desperate to get rid of this hair!
I would love to wear shorts anytime without shaving..and sometimes I have unexpected visitors..I dont want to be seen wearing long pants either. Sigh…I just hate the hairs on my legs..
DOES LASER WORK??? OR ANYTHING? HELP ME PLEASE.
I am blessed with black hair and pale skin.. Yipee!!! Not. I shave, epilate,pluck,bleach,wax, adn thread myself to death. Its really unfair that im so god damn hairy everywhere! But my boyfriend doesnt mind :)

OMG i am so hairy too and i feel so bad sometimes everyone says im prett but i’m not sighs*
All Alone- I understand how you feel. I wish I could say some comforting words to you but we both know, society’s standard of a girl being pretty does not equate to being hairy.
I hope you cheer up and embrace every opportunity that is given to you. Hope you can be confident when there is a guy come knocking on your door. ;>
*HUgs!*
For me, he knows about it because we went to the same school.
Imagine me wearing skirt with hairy legs. At that time, I was 13. I can’t possibly shave throughout my secondary years because it will be too obvious. All along, I pretended I’m fine with my ‘hairy-ness’. If I were to shave, I’m admitting defeat to those moronic boys.
Soon after, I started covering up because I am a muslim. I met a guy and we broke up after a year. He does not know about my condition.
Then, a friend from my secondary school become my bf. H eknows about my condition and are totally fine with it.
Still, I am still scared of his reaction if he were to see me naked. (That is when we get married, then).
Deep down, I believe his words when he says ‘Who are we to hate God’s creations?’.

Can i please please have a photo of your hairy legs ?
I don’t understand how can someone find me attractive when I have more hair then what a normal man would have? I find that people find my facial features attractive and I get told I am pretty but I’m sure facial hair (sideburns,lip hair,chin hair ARE NOT ATTRACTIVE!)daily grooming of the face is mentally draining and a hairy bottom is NOT SEXY on a young woman so how am I to find mister right??!! I see some of these girls on here have found men to love them for who they are please share with me the secret into finding a man that will accept me for me :( I do not know how to approach a man without get rejected and made fun of I dont want to stay a virgin and alone for ever any hints ladies?!?!
Don’t reveal your body until they fully comitt. I have gone on alot of FIRST dates because I am picky. I know I need a very caring sensitive guy who will understand my condition. I was never diagnosed but i am acne prone on my chest, i get hairs on my chest, chin, neck, and butt crease. even when i use nair the hair on my chin doesn’t like to come off so i must tweeze one by one.
I don’t usually my body. I got tired of shaving my breasts! I am still a virgin at 24. I just stick to kissing and cuddling.

The sun is shining & I’m hiding under my duvet cover. I don’t want to go outside. I don’t want to see pretty girls in their nice clothes holding hands with their boyfriends. I feel so sad & alone. I want to be a normal girl but how can I when I’ve ruined my skin from shaving for 16 years? I don’t know what to do. I wish I was never born. Then I won’t be so unhappy. God sees me but He does nothing. He watches as I sit here alone crying & mastabating. I hate my life. Its so miserable & I don’t want to be here anymore. I feel like a bird in a cage. Unable to spread my wings & fly. So on this beautiful saturday I’m here under my duvet cover.
I am on bc pills. Maybe you should try electrolysis if nair is not working for you.
I told him & he said he loves me. I told him about being covered in hairyness but I didn’t go into depth about the razor bumps on my face. He knows something is there but he doesn’t know how bad it is. I was scared to tell him. The way I did it was I showed him one of my messages on this sight & I watched him as he read it. I just couldn’t say the words ‘I’m hairy’. Let’s see how things go. Its still early days to be calling him my boyfriend but damn I’m in love & I’m so happy.

I have hair on my face, my back and my chest…. and my husband has no idea because hes never home long enough to know. hes currently deployed to Iraq and im scared for when he finally comes home and sees it :( im scared because of how “young” we both are that he will act like a child and leave.
its a pity that i need to be so scared around my own husband and i wish people didnt suck so much

Hey gerls,
Im hairy too..In secondary school, I was constanly teased. This guy told all the other guys that I have more hair on my legs if they were to combine theirs and compare with mine.
Those stupid boys make my life miserable Now, my boyfriend accepts me for who I am and assures me that I’m beautiful. Howeveer, I still wax my legs and pubic area. I leave the fine hair on my back, stomach and arms. I’m pretty fair but I have black hair.
We should be grateful. I know it is hard but sometimes, we are too harsh on ourselves.
You are lucky to find someone to love you as who you are I hope your love for one another stay strong hopefully one day I find somebody to love me for me with my extra hair
Yupz,
I’m sure you will find the right guy for you. ;> stay positive!! ;>

Who has a boyfriend & is hairy? How does he handle it? I’m just scared becos I feel that he won’t look @ me the same after I tell him. He’s gonna be so disappointed & I fear that he will leave me.
I have a boyfriend and i am indeed a hairy girl. I have hair (dark prickly hair) on my stomach, breasts, bottom (around the anus), and very dark pubic hair. My boyfriend says he likes the hair but I definitely do not. I want to get rid of my hair as soon as possible, but laser treatments are so expensive and I don’t want to be in debt just because I want to be beautiful. I shave and tweeze which is bad but, i don’t know what else to do. I’m going to try the spearmint tea maybe it will work i am desperate.
Chances are he won’t leave you for something so trivial. If he loves you like he says he does then the hair won’t matter n he’ll try to explore options with you to try and rid that gorgeous body of the unsightly hair. <3
Well, clearly it seems that there are quite a few women who actually have huge problems with hirsutism. Maybe it’s about time we find out what actually works. Has anybody tried this spearmint tea? What about spironolactone? It seems to me that doctors are really ignorant about the problem since our lives are not in danger.. well they have no idea how many times I have thought about suicide and actually prepared for it. Hirsutism is in fact a big problem and it needs more attention.
I feel the same as all you feel. Ive hated my increasing facial hair/body hair since I was 14 but it was not so bad till i turned 20 and then boom it started increasing gradually with each removal month after month year after year. Its gotten worse since age 26 and at age 29 now its getting so bad and driving me nuts because its so hard to accept myself. Ive lost hours of my life fussing over the hair. But the way I cope now is im trying to improve the appearence of my skin bcuz shaving my face takes a lot out of the healthy skin look and adds too many ingrowns. Ive figured out that high end natural products such as origins never a dull moment face wash and origins modern friction work best before shaving bcuz they gently exfoliate and dont cause irritation. I use to use gillette shave gel but im making an effect to use natural products so now im using dr. bronners unscented liquid castille soap it makes a luxurious creamy lublicated later i add a dash of alba moisture shave cream this is very effective almost magic with the liquid castile soap laster. this routine has helped my regain my soft youthful skin back after shaving so long. i never use mens razors tho. i pat my face dry after shaving. i follow with aveda exfoliate which is a great toner as a bonus it keeps ingrowns at bay. finally i apply hydrating lotion which anlog with exfoliate , are both from aveda`s line botanical kinetics. and i top off the smoothness with bare minerals mineral makeup i made the switch to these products after having crappy razor damaged skin 4 way too long. this is not a commerical for these products but its just something ive found to take the edge off my anxiety and facial hair worries. I know these products are a bit expensive but its been worth every penny for my increased self esteem Im not saying rush out and buy these im just saying high quality prodcts can help with restoring razor damaged skin not every product is right for everyone but these products brands have many lines that cater to specific skin types such as oily or dry or combination skin. also exfoliating (removing dead skin cells) is essential before shaving and moisturizing after is essential too so i hope this can help some one improve her skin along with her self esteem.
I like to know you

hi, i m 21.i m damn hairy.i hv hair on all d possible areas n being a girl its so embarrasing.i feel ashamed of myself. just becoz i have gud features people say i m so beautiful but wenever i hear dat my heart cries den y do i have so many hairs. i always feel dese people will stop loving me once dey cum to know abt my reality. i hate my body i just want to ged rid of dese hair or my life. i feel so depressed everytime i luk at myself.
Dont ever be depressed..its truly sexy
do you truly think hair on a female is sexy?
He thinks I’m perfect. It will break his heart when I tell him how ugly I am. Then he will leave me and I will go back to hiding away from the world. But he makes me so happy and I make him happy. But how will he take the news? Things will definetely change and I just don’t need people being akward with me. Especially him. I’m in love and I’m covered in hairyness and razor bumps. He won’t look at me the same after I tell him but he needs to know the truth. I can’t keep pushing him away because he always comes back. But after hearing what I have to tell him. Its a shame. my heart is breaking and he’s gonna hate me
its okay get ur mind together and beat it! i had the same prob! n it fell out hi let me tell u i had the same prob HAD. i was sooo hairy but i got rid of it by changing my diet! stop eating sugars all simple carbs as in no white flour,cos it turns into sugar .sugar increases testosterone. and if ur testosterone increases so will serverity of unwanted hair. also use mint oil and mint tea cos it washes out testosterone. aslo u need omega 3s take cod liver oil . if ur overweight loose weight. u also need caprylic acid with ur food also put coconut oil in ur diet. u can repair ur body n it will heal itself but we have to go back to our boilogical way of eating. u can email me [email protected]
Seriously ladies you need to stop, I am a 23 year old woman who has had facial hair since high school. At first it was embarrassing but i just plucked at first but my hair has slowly increased so I shave. I have been in 3 serious relationships. My first had no idea my second caught me shaving my face and my husband asked why I took so long in the shower and I just told him the truth and he still loves me. Its not my fault I have PCOS and its not my fault I have facial hair. My whole family knows and my friends know. If you shave exfoliate before hand with a loofa and body wash shave with the grain once you get it close enough go against the grain this will reduce ingrowns. use a mans shaving cream and a mans razor with 5 blades its a closer shave then use a good face cream to soothe the face, If you are paranoid and embarrased about it then he will see it as bad. If you honestly accept yourself and your bodies natural beauty and imperfections then he honestly wont care. Love is love

How do u tell the guy u like that u are hairy & u have a beard?
hi, its sad to hear that this has stopped you from being in a serious relationship. i have issues with a hairy face, just get so sick of “maintaining” it. my partner doesnt even notice mine and didnt from the start of our relationhip. shallow people who judge you on the outside are not the sort of people you want.
I have hair every where and its the one thing that keeps me from going into a serious relationship, i am consumed by it and i wish i new how to stop obsessing, it feels good knowing there are people out there who felt the way i feel.
I don’t understand why hair is considered ugly. If a person has a nice body and nice skin [as in no pimples], then body hair is no big deal. We all have it…unless you’re a child or a chemo patient.
okay, so I am ugly because i get acne? because i get hair bumps on my chest from shaving. I used to stay away from v neck and strapless dresses. but now i don’t care and still wear pretty things.it makes me happy.
I am so glad to hear I am not te only one :) my dad is Macedonian and my mum is croatian I am so damn hairy its embarrassing I am in my early 20’s and never had a proper serious realationship because of it, it controls my life and I wish there was an easy way out! I do the regular waxing on the legs arms and face also did laser on my legs underarms and stomach it helped alot on my legs and underarms not so much on the belly only problem is you can’t really stop the treatments I find hair slowly grows back (finer which is a bonus) I have done 20 treatments haven’t tried to touch my bottom yet should try something for it just don’t want to show anyone
hey im sexy
Omg! emma I am so glad to hear this from u, I am latin and i live in Sweden, and all the girls here are so damn HAIRLESS, I mean they do have hair but its all blonde :( And I have hair all over the place, i feel so manly all the time, I am sure u have blonde hair, you are lucky, shaving is so hectic, but it did make me feel better reading your optimistic comment, and i dont think any guy can like me if he really knows how I am, he will run for sure..I have no problem with my body or face but its cursed by HAIR!
OMG I have the same problem and I feel like no one has it like I do. I live in Hawaii where every one is asian-mixed, brown, and hairless. I am Italian mixed and I have hair on my nipples, stomach, lower back, butt, my leg hairs are so black and course, and my bikini line has no end. Of-course, I am single because I wonʻt let myself be loved or being nude is just a nightmare. Laser is the only thing that works. Best wishes to you!! Love yourself!!

i don’t think blondes have to shave as much. you don’t really notice blonde hairs on white skin. but dark hairs on brown skin is notieceable. i am black, nice body(34C-26-36), but i don’t usually reveal my body because of my cystic acne, hair, and also have trust issues. men are so flighty.
I’m sorry to hear about your situation. Its sad being hairy and wanting to date. But I think that if he really loves you, he will stay & support you.
Please let be the hair in your bodies! Hairy people, women and men, are wonderful!
I can’t deal with the pressure of being hairy & having a boyfriend. He knows that there’s something on my face but he doesn’t know the extent of it. I’ve ruined my skin from shaving & now I can’t deal with someone being around me. I keep pushing him away & he keeps coming back. I’m scared to tell him about the razor bumps & the hairyness. I know that he will leave me & I can’t deal with rejection. Especially by him. I love him & I want to be with him but a girl with a rooted face & hairy body is sure to put him off. Then what do I do?
Donʻt worry. Being vulnerable is scary but you are a gift, donʻt waste time with small things like body hair. I have wasted so much time and sabotaged so many relationships because of my hatred of my body hair. My sisters has a lot of chin hair (a lot!!) and her boyfriend adores her, tells her not to worry about it, and that when they can afford it they will get laser removal. Love is compassion. I encourage you to be vulnerable and let him see you as you are. Blessings
hid eit and get ride of it — if he sees it tell him its about to fall out . but if he aint man enough to deal with grown ppls probs drop him like its hot.nonono dont eccept it ! get rid of it! hi let me tell u i had_the same prob HAD. i was sooo hairy but i got rid of it by changing my diet! stop eating sugars all simple carbs as in no white flour,cos it turns into sugar .sugar increases testosterone. and if ur testosterone increases so will serverity of unwanted hair. also use mint oil and mint tea cos it washes out testosterone. aslo u need omega 3s take cod liver oil . if ur overweight loose weight. u also need caprylic acid with ur food also put coconut oil in ur diet. u can repair ur body n it will heal itself but we have to go back to our boilogical way of eating. u can email me [email protected] ps . also when u had this prob u need iodine ! but in the natural form eat seaweed u can get it at most stores in the asian section i eat it like chips . cos u need the zince/minerals and iodine in the seawwed / seaweed is the richest source of these things but u need to take a enzyme with it so u dont get gas . any1 with this prob can contact me . xoxox
Dude! We’re mammals. Girls are mammals, too. Of course we’re going to have hair! It’s such a shame that society makes us feel so bad about it. I don’t have any disorder but I inherited hairiness from my dad (I’m Scandinavian). It used to bug me, but I get so much attention now because I’ve realized that I am beautiful, and being fuzzy doesn’t stop that. Yes, I have a mustache, but I actually use scissors to cut it unnoticeably short. It’s quick and easy. Also, most models have excess body hair! If you ever see photos of them lit in a certain way, sometimes you can see the hair sticking up from their arms and it’s pretty long! Also, I’ve seen photos of Marilyn Monroe with very thick hair on her arms. And Megan Fox… something about her; you can tell she has a mustache. Also the inside of her eyebrows are very thick. And these are some of the most beautiful women in recent history! I think in order to have a beautiful head of hair, you’re going to have to live with some on your body. So shave your legs, your pits, maybe your belly button and pubes, pluck your eyebrows, do something to your ‘stache, and move on with your life!! People who really matter won’t care if you have hair on your butt cheeks. Trust me, my boyfriend doesn’t! It’s not like you’re always running around with your butt cheeks exposed anyway. Take care of the beautiful hair on your head, because I’m sure plenty of women are jealous.
Omg! emma I am so glad to hear this from u, I am latin and i live in Sweden, and all the girls here are so damn HAIRLESS, I mean they do have hair but its all blonde And I have hair all over the place, i feel so manly all the time, I am sure u have blonde hair, you are lucky, shaving is so hectic, but it did make me feel better reading your optimistic comment, and i dont think any guy can like me if he really knows how I am, he will run for sure..I have no problem with my body or face but its cursed by hair!
I’ve started using the razor bump/ ingrown hair product. I wished I started years ago instead of sitting & waiting for a miracle from God.

There are a lot of people with real problems that could be easily managed if our society wasnt so greedy. Laser hair removal should not be so expensive. I truly wish for all women out there (and men too) that someday laser hair removal will be just an ordinary, practical way of life. In the future people will wonder how any of us ever put up with the daily hair removal grind. We spend so much of our time on shaving, waxing, plucking, etc. all the time worrying when it needs to be done again. All of our lives are too short anyway I hope someday our maximum profits society will relent a little bit and just do whats good for everyone and make laser hair removal more affordable.
Hi girls, I’m so glad I found this sight. Its been only this year that I’ve started talking about the hairyness. Its everywhere & I’ve ruined my skin from shaving all these years. My problem is I can’t wear low cut tops, dresses & I can’t put my hair up. I haven’t dated or been kissed in 5 years. I feel like I’ve lost my identity & I’m struggling with not being able to express myself with clothes, accessories & hair styles. I’ve grown up & I’m aware of my body. I have a really nice shape but nobody can see it cos I’m always covered. I feel like a tomboy even though I’m a girlie girl. Its so sad cos I’m a girl & every time I see my breasts I’m in shock because they’re nice & big but becos I never wear nice clothes I hardly see them so when I do I cry. Its so sad. I’m a girl but I’m not able to express myself.
just use body bleach, it works :)
You are so the one girl that i’m looking for:(

hi,actually im in z same boat like u all…………i want to get rid of unwanted hair…….i got it everywhere in my body…..its discusting.i want to be pregnant…… i knw its bcoz of harmones ……..plz help……….
Yep, I also have PCOS, suffer from hirsutism, am slightly overweight and apparently staring down the barrel of Type 2 Diabetes if I don’t control my weight in the next few years (I am 32, 170cm and 69kg). To all you teenagers out there, I suffered similar problems when I was younger, including a mother who didn’t understand when I told her I was hairier than other girls (although at the time, mine was thankfully not too dark), she assumed I was just freaking out about puberty, I guess. Even now, I don’t think she quite believes me when I say I suffer from hirsutism, but that’s because I pluck my chin hairs religiously and you will never see me in shorts, let alone bathers, if it’s anywhere below 38 degrees! And a bikini is quite out of the question! But, regarding boys not liking you, I have had a couple of boyfriends while suffering from these symptoms and not one of them cared a bit. I do shave when I feel the need (I try to stay away from razors when it comes to bikini lines and other sensitive areas and go for a ladyshaver instead, it reduces the instances of shaving bumps considerably), but if I don’t shave, my boyfriend doesn’t care. He even sometimes helpfully points out the my moustache may be a little long (our bathroom mirror is not help at all!) I also agree that you should probably try to stay away from drugs like Spironolactone and the like unless there are no other options available. Laser treatment was recommended to me by my gynaecologist and that, I think, is my next step as the Pill that I was on to lessen the effects of PCOS (mainly the hair) was making me very irritable (read: angry/moody/unbearable) and damaging my relationship. I will also give Spearmint tea a go as I love tea and anything that may reduce my hair growth that is cheap and effective, not to mention, delicious, is a goer in my book.
Omg thank you soo much for ur story u really made me feel a lot better with my body but why dont u like Spironolactone?
I was diagnosed with poly cystic ovaries over thirty years ago. I had real problems with hair everywhere..especially my face which I had to shave almost everyday. I started with a treatment of electrolysis and though it was painful and costly and took time…it really really worked. I cant even begin to tell how worth it is. It changed my life…no more shaving or feeling self conscious…it got rid of my hair permanently. Now that I am in my late 40’s and hitting menopause, i have random regrowth of a little of the hair but I go to laster to treat it. The moral of the story…dont suffer…get to it… dont wait! It works!
Can’t notice that anyones mentioned epilating, its more painful that waxing but it gets easier everytime and seems to work better. Google it? x
I’ve been shaving since 11 & I’m 27 now. I went through depression when I was 21 & its only now that I’m getting my life back. Razor bumps & hairyness has caused me to hate myself & I’ve isolated myself from my friends & the outside world. I’m seeing a counsellor at the moment & its helping. Right now I don’t want to be alone. I want a boyfriend but who would want a hairy girl.
I want a hairy girl! I think fuzzy women are incredibly pretty! Wish I had a fuzzy sweetie……

I have had fine hair growing on really crazy parts of my body since I was 18. Even on my face! I got darker hair growing on my cleavage, along my stomach and upper thighs. I used to shave every other day. Then I started plucking my face and hairline with tweezers every few days and getting my lower arms and legs waxed. It was agony. Eventually I realised I was wasting so much time in these rituals getting rid of hair that I had stopped doing anything useful with my time. I was also wasting a TON of money buying hair removal products! The guys I was dating had hair in places I didn’t like, but they weren’t bothering to do anything about it. Yet, they expected me to shave everything. One day I had a huge row with my ex when he wanted me to go swimming at the last minute and I hadn’t shaved for 3 days and didn’t have time to do it before we left. He decided to point out the hairs anyway! I broke up with him and haven’t bothered with all the plucking since. I shave my legs every week or so if I feel like it and under my arms and that is all. F**k all this shaving! I’m sick and tired of wasting my life feeling like crap and trying to battle nature! I’ve stopped buying magazines, stopped watching TV, stopped looking at anything where I have to see all these f****ng ‘perfect’ women! Instead of all that, I am now composing music (something I have wanted to do for years but never had time for)!
I apologise for my language and anger, but why the hell should I be made to feel bad for how I was made? And why is it (mainly) women who have to go through this? I’ve never known a guy to waste so much time trying to look ‘normal’!
PLease read my recent story on laser hair removal and feel free to leave a comment on my contact form…..http://www.mytwistedstyle.com/
Man being hairy just sucks butt!! Im almost 20 Now and i have hair pretty much everywhere.. Not as thick but they r there. I was always hairy since i was little but dk how cuz all the women in my family are not as hairy as me. Im dying to wear 2 peice bikinis, v-necks,and Stuff like that but i dont want Ppl to see im hairy and comment on it . especially around guys. I think they aré not going to like me after they find out im hairy. Not to be conceited or anything but i think im very pretty and have nice Body but i had to be cursed with all this hair. lol :( it’s depressing looking at all the other girls hairless where i have hair. I want all this hair gone asap!! maybe this tea works…. Anyone out there who has tried this tea that can tell me if it works?? Or any suggestions on what i should do?? something not as expensive but can last. shaving and creams aré tiring . Heeeellllp pllleaaaase !!!
I love you and hairy women, Please stop feeling bad about how yoou were made. I would love to see some pictures of you! I get so turned on by hairy women it hurts! I just want to look at them all day long. Especially a women with dark curly hair ! Ohh S***, i am going crazy!
Ok, I am thirteen and have hair (thin stuff, like my arm hair which is normal) on my stomach and boobs. The boobs I can accept, I can’t remove that hair, but my snail trail and cleavage? Shaving just results in cuts coz it’s such a uneven surface, and my mum won’t let me use anything else! Actually mum doesn’t know about my stomach, she knows I shave my legs and underarms and she doesn’t know I cut and shave the top of my pubes… She’s not very approachable in that way… I’m not allowed to go to the shops on my own, mum even picks out which pads I use when I have my period, so getting a cream or aomething kind of isn’t an option… Please help! Ps. I have pubes in my anus, WTF? Btw immonly allowwed one cup of tea a day because if caffeine…
Thx
Lu xx
Well, your mom seems stupid. Because your 13 years old .. your becoming a woman.. she should be there for questions and stuff, but she needs to stand back and let you decide what
to do. And wtf ? your only allowed a cup of tea a day cause of caffeine ? .. there is no caffeine in tea , .. so your moms kindove an idiot. and for the hair situation theres not much you can do i guess, deffenetly do not shave ! that will cause worse problems. Waxing is a good option because if you do it enough times your hair will become very faint, and hardly notible , in some cases the hair eventually stops growing ! so yeaaah.
thats my opion.
hey guys..so nice to see all the comments it makes me feel better.. i gt too much hairs too ..on ma face, back, stomach etc… i shave ma arm and leg..bt its very bd… however thats ok..but i am worried wiv ma face. i suffer from acne too.. evertnk makes me depressive. i am tweezing sometimes and use hair removing cream for ma face bt its not working as i hv to do it almost every week… its awful…

Hi , girls
who drank spearmint tea?
does it effective?
I definitely know how you all feel. I’m going to be 35 next month and I have dealt with unwanted hair since I was in my early teens. I use to have the hairiest arms (plus the tops of my hands and fingers). I got made fun of all the time when I was younger so I started going and getting my full arms waxed. This was great, plus over time the hair grew back finer and there was less of it (I went once every 5 weeks). In recent years I’ve started using Veet on my arms as it is quicker and MUCH cheaper. I use the Veet once every 3-4 weeks and it works just as well.
Additionally, when I was 28 my hormones started getting all crazy. I broke out with cystic acne all over my face and started noticing fine hair all over my face (like the full beard area on a guy) with some dark black hairs mixed in. I was horrified. I went to the dermatologist and was put on Acutane for the acne and after 7 months my face was finally clear. However, the hair still remained PLUS the hair on my head started falling out. I also got dark, course hair around my nipples and a small trail of hair on my belly. AGAIN, I was horrified. I went to several doctors and they all kept telling me it was genetic (however, none of the women in my family had ever had these problems before me). After 3 years of going through this I finally found a doctor that listened to what I was saying and she sent me for an abdominal CAT scan to look at my ovaries. From this they saw that I had cysts covering my ovaries and they were constantly rupturing and reforming. I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). This syndrome causes cystic acne, patterned baldness, unwanted hair growth, etc. I’ve never been so happy to be diagnosed with a problem before because there’s way to deal with this problem!!! One way is to take oral contraceptives. This works for a lot of people unfortunately I was not one of them. I’ve been on oral contraceptives since I was 15 years old due to painful and frequent periods. It worked great for that but wasn’t strong enough to take on the PCOS. My doctor then suggested Spironolactone (Aldactone). Spironolactone is actually a blood pressure medicine but has also been found to treat PCOS in women. It works pretty well but it is not without side effects though and you definitely do not want it in your system if you are trying to conceive.
Since I would like to try to get pregnant in the next couple of years (I’ve also had a hard time getting and staying pregnant over the years due to the PCOS.) I’m going to have to put the Spironolactone on the back burner. I’m excited to try the spearmint tea for the unwanted hair growth though I don’t know what I’ll do about the patterned baldness and cystic acne. If anyone has any natural remedies for these I would love to hear them!!!
I truly know how you ladies feel,and im with you!Im 15 years old right now,and im VERY hairy.My dad is hairy also and his mom,my mom no .It started when i was about 12 and it got worse throughtout the years.I started shaving when i was 13 and now my hands have cuts and marks all over them.I wear some dress and short sleaves,but i feel so insecure and ugly.I have a nice face and body[so i’ve been told:],but these hair are so depressing and annoying.
I hope this tea helps.I told my mother men have it soo easy!
Why couldnt women be born with hair on there heads,eyebrowns,and eyelashes only?:D
Becca
@ Becca. I’m 21 and it’s gotten worse it feels. So You’re in the same boat, trust me. :(
I hate this!! I want my man to have the mustache NOT ME!!!! Only men should have mustaches! MUSTACHES ARE CUTE, AND ONLY CUTE ON MEN!!!!:( i think it’s weird that my friend who really likes me can’t grow one, and I can! And it sorely depresses me. (there are some men out there who actually don’t have ANY TYPE OF FACIAL HAIR ON THEM! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT???) (It’s a hereditary disorder, I’ve heard, but how sad for a guy, I’d love to give him mine!) XDD
*sigh* I use Nair and I tweeze with the horrifying thought of this crap coming back darker. And I have this paranaoia about hair on my face that shouldn’t belong there. Even if it’s small and unnoticeable, I’m like “OMFG!! KILL IT!!! KILL IT!! I DONOT WANT TO FEEL IT ON MY FAAAAACE!!!! F@#$ING KIIIIILLLLL IIIIITT!!!”
I NEVER shave my face. I see only men shave their face. It seems wiith women who are darker haired like me, suffer from this s*it than their stupid lucky dumb blonde counterparts. I hav it on my arms (but not too conspicuous God was merciful THERE) in between my breasts and below my stomach. I don’t feel feminine at all. :( I have such a low self-esteem and this adds to it. God, if I had the money I’d get this crap taken off PERMANENTYLY!! LASER the F*%@ING S*** OFF!!!
Seriously, God gave the animal (man) an easier life to live. He dies before the wife. (ususally) HE can be hairy like the animal he is. He can keep on populating, WE have periods and THEN Oh joy, MENOPAUSE for the rest of our godforsaken life until the day WE DIE. Sooo looking forward to that S*#T!!
men don’t have to worry about getting pregnant, hell, if he was really unfaithful, he go right onto the next young hott thing. Ugh.
God, this pisses me off. My sister has a hairy upperlip and she’s
fine with it. JEEZ, I wish I had her type of self-esteem! I remember at the ripe old age of 7 and finding out that I was growing effing facial hair, MY GOD THAT DEPRESSED ME!!! All my life since i was young, I had a thing for mustached men, and here I was starting to grow one!!! F*&#ing NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
But yes, I always wished that to God our creator, “Why couldn’t us women be born with hair on just our heads, eyebrows, and eyelashes only?” Let the man look like a beast, not us! WE want to be dainty, delicate, beautiful and pleasing to the eye to look at.”
I hate my voice as well. At times I feel so manly, it makes me so uncomfortable to think about how masculine I feel. :( I hate the hair I hate my voice and I hate my godawful manly nose!!!
For hair removal, DONT USE NAIR, it works, but it’s crap sometimes. I liked Sally HAnsen Hair Removal. She is so much better than Nair. And… I wouldn’t shave.
D@MN THESE HORMONE LEVELS!! I hope this tea works for me….. (D:)
Please get yourself to a doctor. My daughter was just diagnosed with PCOS and it sounds like most of the girls here may have this same hormonal disorder. She is having a really difficult time as well with the excess hair and acne. The doctor can prescribe birth control pills or a medication called Metformin to help reduce the symptoms. Also, eating a low carb diet and exercising is supposed to help as well. Good luck to you all. I’m curious about the tea as well and will keep researching trying to find something to help her.
Very useful review! Can’t wait to try this out. Anyway, I’ve also experienced Laser hair removal and it was really good. You might want to try it.
I’m 15 years old and i started to noticed that i have hair on my face, stomach and other places this year. It very hairy ! i hate it,i have to wear long sleeve/cardigan when i go out and it sucks. I’ve always wanted to wear dresses and skirts, shorts and all. I can’t because of this stupid hair -___-
I’m scared that guys won’t like me if they knew i’m hairy, and its really depressing if they do so. I don’t think they have Spearmint tea here in my country. I was planning on waxing, does it reduce hair growth?
Im 16 years old, and ive been dealing with “hairy problems” since i was 13 or 14! =/i absolutely hate it!!!! Its soo annoying.. i have hair everywhere.. i have sideburns, moustache, chin hair.. then i got hair on my butt, tummy and arms.=/. I tried waxing it, its alright.. but i havent been there in a while i also tried shaving but it comes back thicker and i also use nair for the face..Hopefully this spearmint tea hig will work.. Im like ready to give up!?! ;p
Hello i am 16 male as far as i can see most of you have got a hair problems i am certain all of that got a hair problem your skin is a softer than normal that is causes hair to grow up esier than a tougher skin so there is some trainings that makes your skin come to normal then hairs will grow up harder i think this is makes you a little bit hairless than before because my legs are a little bit hairy than a normal and i do not know how ladies figure this out,i am doing those trainings and i feel better i hope all of get rid of hair problems god bless
Not to discourage you, but I would be VERY cautious of the medications, topicals (creams, etc) and stuff. I work in the medical field and see too many side effects causing additional problems such as liver and kidney damage.. Try “Googling” these meds and you will see what I am saying. Be VERY careful of this stuff ladies. If someone picks on you about hair they are a sad creature.
BTW, dude you are clueless. Hair results from hair follicles in the skin. Many things cause “hairiness.” Pcos and hormones are some causes. Shaving, waxing or whatever will not lessen the number of hair follicles. They may or may not result in the hair growing back finer.
i am 14 and its so depressing to have hair on my face, butt, chest, stomach, back, legs and arms ! I am sick and tired of it, i use to shave my whole body spending god knows 2 – 3 hours daily, i was fine with it first, but then i couldnt do it anymore, it was very tiring, my friends think i am hairless, which is good, but I AM NOT, i cant keep up with shaving daily, and i hate those black spots which i get, i bleach my face and its all peach fuzz, even my chin hair because i dint pluck it, no one has said anything except this gay guy in my class, i hated it, i am too young for laser but unitl then i need some way to say hair free most of the time, PLEASE HELP, Thank You so much !
omg i have this problem about facial hair but im scared to use like that bleaching stuff on my face because i have really sensative skin but i dnt wanna start high school with that ughh what should i do?
Sam trust me, first Just try a patch on your arm, it will itch a bit but thats normal, and if you dont face any allergic reaction, you can use it on your face :) I am telling you, if you pluck it it will become thicker and the chin hair will come back rather quickly, My mom has it and she has to pluck it EVERYDAY, so just Bleach it till You are 18, and then you can go and Laser it so that its gone FOREVER ;)
Hi Kim I have Facial Hair problems too! I started getting Facial Hair when I was in 4th grade but it wasn’t really that noticebly till now (I’m 14 now)! My mom has Facial Hair too. I was wondering if you bleach your Facial Hair how long does it last till it returns to its normal color in the first place? I’ve thought of doing something about it, but I’m afraid if I bleach or wax it, it’ll get darker and longer! Have you ever tried waxing before?? Its really bothering me now, help please :]
Well My chin hair is longer and I have 3-4 thick hair strands now :( But bleaching dosent cause it, waxing/shaving or tweezing might, well I bleach every other day, I wont recommend it to you, because it can harm your skin but I would say after 2 weeks I bleach, but for some it lasts 2 Months ! And maybe your facial hair is lesser than me, but TRUST ME, bleaching wont increase ur hair, it will just make it blonde ;) Which means less visible, take a close look at your Blonde friends, they have more hair on their hands and all but just because its blonde, people thinks its “okay” -.- But oh well, till we get it lasered we are stuck with it, I am on my way to depression..I guess this hair problem aint as little as it seems for hairless people :(
I started shaving like you when I was fourteen too and tryst ms it’s a BAD idea , don’t shave because even though studies say that shaving does not make your hair coarser but it just causes them to have a flat top-end instead of a pointy one, constant shaving causes your skin to peel off around the pores making it hard for the hair to come out. It ends up curling in your skin causing ingrowns , especially if u have thick hair. I’ve tried all methods of hair removing since I was 12 up till now, I’m seventeen. Electrolysis is too slow, waxing shaving and threading cause ingrowns but laser is good. Even though it ddnt permanently remove my hair, it helps me get rid of them for two months and they come out weaker than before. I hope this helps.
hey i havve the same problems as all you ladies …
i have went through about 80% of these cmnts so im seriouse …

thanks, and God Bless<3
hey wow it’s nice to know i’m not alone with this problem although it’s not nice at all to have it!!!!!!!!!!!!i have been suffering from depression and i know that most of it is from this problem and i am far too embarassed to ever tell anyone. i’ve had help for my depression but this hair problem is still here and i really don’t feel able to tell my parents (i’m 23). I finally told the doctor which was very hard to do but I did and all my hormone tests were normal so I haven’t got PCOS. But he just said there was nothing he could do to stop the hair and I left crying. I keep waxing all the time but I’m sick of it and it keeps making me depressed! I’ve changed doctors now and hopefully they will help as I know there are creams and tablets that can help. I realllly want laser hair removal but my parents won’t pay it’s so expensive and I don’t have the money for it. I don’t know what to do as I reallllly need it done but I just can’t tell my parents or even my friends as I’m so embarassed! I know a few of my friends have had hair problems but I’m even too embarassed to tell them as I like to give off a perfect image. Also there are no shops here (in the UK) that sell pure spearmint tea. Does anyone know of any? Or any other suggestions? I can’t help but feel depressed about it as I personally hate body hair on anyone, especially on myself! :(
HI, i would just like to let people know i have been on spironolactone for the last 18months, it is absolutely fantastic. i had acne (cyst like under my skin) – it cleared up my skin in a few months – rarely get a spot now and i used getl oads. Spironolactone reduces the testosterone hoemones in your body whcih causes acne and hair.. for me spironolactone wokrked very well on my dark hairs but not on my blond hairs – i have a lot of blond hairs on my face, which is quite annoying as they cannot be treated by laser apparently.. i bought spearmint tea today, hopefully that will help… i get electrolysis done, have been for about 10 years, cant say i think it works but i have to do something each month to make it not look too bad.. i get electrolysis done about every 3 weeks.. i am age 34.. and my aunties have the same condition.. i got my blood tested but hormones level normal.. although i really do believe it has got to do with your hormones, as i said spironolactone (testosterone reducer) has worked a treat on my skin (100mg) – started off on 25mg, which worked then also.. have increased it as apparently you need higher levels to work on hirsituism.. i hope this post helps someone.. if youve got acne- it will defo help you, if youve got dark hairs, it will also help you, not sure about blond – think it slightly helps but not enough..
Very interesting topic. Laser hair removal is one of the most effective hair removal treatments available today. I would recommend this to my friends.
im 13 goin on 14 in the matter of days. i have body hair and i hate it. i have low self esteem because of it. i dont like people to see my body. and thats not fair. i should be able to go out in a bikinii in the summer time and go swimming without worrying if someone saw my body hair. to me is gross and i hate it. and it can damage your self esteem. i ask myself why me ? why did i have to have it ? i hide it from boys. i hide my body , infront of them when i go swimming i should have to. im supposed to feel pretty and i dont i feel gross and disgusting. ive told my mom how i feel . she says it COULD go away but thats the thing could . i want it gone. i shouldnt have to worry about this. i guess its different when you have it. its like it eventually definse you and takes over. i have it on my back . my stomach. my chest. and my arms. my arms i dont mind . but the rest i do. i wanna be able to where those tank tops that show off your back . but i cant . and i have dark dark brown hair. so all the hair on my body is dark as well. i am gunna try this tea. im praying it will work. im glad theres people out there who try and find ways to get rid of hair on the body. gives me hope. i just really want it gone, and for my self esteem to come back. and so that i can go out and not have it define me.

I agree, Laser hair removal is a vey must for every woman.
I am 14 years old & have hair on my legs, back of my legs, arms, back(mostly the lower half), & butt. I am fine with the arm hair honestly..but the rest, I am not. I am African American but my mom told me once that I am Cherokee Indian. My whole family on my dad’s side thinks otherwise, though :P I live with my dad & he is practically hairy all over, I always think he’s the reason why I have so much body hair. I’ve seen my mom’s lower half & she has hairy legs but that’s all I’ve seen.
I’ve told my dad about the problem & he tends to do nothing about it :l The only thing I have tried is shaving, it has done me no good deed because the hair grows back in 3 three days. I get so emotional over this & I always tend to lose a lot of self-esteem over this problem. I didn’t notice the hair until I was 13. I have no problem being around boys because I’m barely romantically involved :P I’ve wore jeans throughout most of my 9th grade yr. I am very willing to try anything to get rid of this disgusting body hair.
I’ve been diagnosed with PCOS when I was 15. I’m almost 18 now, been under treatment since, and still not even the slightest improvement. I have black hair from my upper lip, to my chest, to my stomach area, back…practically everywhere. Also my periods are not regular, but I’m really skinny. It’s tough, but I deal with it as well as I can and mostly by hiding my body. I haven’t worn a swimsuit or a blouse with cleavage for years now. I don’t have any hope left and I’m scared that if ppl find out about my condition, they’ll laugh at me and reject me. So I decided to wax this week: chest, stomach area, back, arms…I’ll see how that turns out. Best of luck to all of you!
I’m 17 yr old female, who questions herself about her sex , since I’m sorta flat and hairy, and I have dealt with this accessive hair problem for as long as i can remember , it started to increase when I bagan puberty at the age of 11 . I really hate it , becuase I’m a good looking girl in and out , but having this hair hides the beauty . I do try to shave , wax, and bleach at times , but its just too much .I have so much going on in life and this fact makes my life harder on the way.I dress like a tomboy all the time , not that I hate it , but I just want my friends and family to see me as a girl for once, and I would like to try it myself too. I hate hiding in clothes all the time. I hate how I miss out on social events that need little less conservative clothing.I hate how I have to lie to my friends and family that I have my period , so I dont have to swim wearing a suim suit. I hate how I have a hard time talking to people and especially guys for them not to see. I dont want this to restrict me from activites in life , but I’m too scared and embarrassed to tell anyone . Since I live with my step mom , and I have’nt seen my mom these past 3 years ,I dont know who to go to.My step is nice and all , but she is a really busy women , and I’m too shy to tell her my problem I feel like a burden on her , and as a matter of fact I’m too shy to tell anyone my problem ,well as long as your not seeing my face. I just dont want people , especially my family to see me as an isolated and depressed girl, I can really be a fun person to hang out with.I just dont know to do ? and who to tell , and how to tell ??? I’m so scared and I dont have anyone to go to!!!!, I feel like I’m alone with a growing problem in me and it makes me cry every day, I want to be there for my family and friends in any occasion, I need someone to help me out on this or just to atleast guide me through the way and not freak out .
I totally understand how you feel! I’m also 17, but I’ve been dealing with this ever since I started puberty. It’s really unfair because I’m Asian and NO ONE in my family is as hairy as me… not even my dad! My mom has some hair on her upper lip, chin, and a tiny bit on her back, and I think I’ve inherited the hairy genes from her — except I’m like 10x worse than hers since hers isn’t that noticeable. But you’re lucky that you don’t have hyperhydrosis (excessive sweatiness, gross!) along with being hairy. I’m 100% positive that I got the hyperhydrosis problem from my dad. It sucks to be me because I’m hairy and I get sweaty all over my body! A lot of you girls are lucky that you don’t have to deal with both of these problems because they cause so much embarrassment for me… and it just keeps getting worse every single day! A lot of times, I think that it would’ve been better if I was just born as a boy; at least then, it wouldn’t be as big of a deal.
It sucks that I can’t wear the clothes that I like or go hang out with my friends because it has caused me to have such a low self-esteem. And lord knows, when it comes to guys, I just want to go hide in a corner ‘cos I don’t want them to see me. It also doesn’t help since I’m painfully shy. The chances of me ever finding a boyfriend is probably at -75% anyways. Some of my classmates, who barely even know me, have even told me that I was somewhat pretty, but I still feel really ugly no matter what they say.
I’ve tried talking to my parents about my problems but they simply don’t care. How is any girl supposed to deal with this if her parents are completely apathetic? All this crap has gotten me really depressed over the years and I just can’t stand it! Seriously, why did I have to inherit these things? Did the gene pool just hate me or something? If only scientists could find a solution to this problems already!
Hi L I have the same problem as you! I’m asian too. My mom has dark black upper lip hair but it only shows on the ends. My sister has it too but hers is not that noticeable unless your staring right at her face. But I hate my upper lip hair so much! I have more then my mom or my sister! I was wondering have you ever tried waxing before? Cause I wanna try it but I’m afraid my facial hair will grow back darker and longer! I really hate it so much!
To all the Ladies,
This is very important before you go for LASER or any kind of hair treatment..
FIrst please go to you GP and check for PCOS..
If you have PCOS laser would not work at all..
So just get treated for it and then the effect is less laser will work not otherwise
omg!! i thought i was the only one!! im 22 and i shave my whole body ,arms,back,stomach etc as i am very hairy and they are long black thick hairs and its very embarrassing and i get depressed bout it all the time and often cry :( :(
i ain’t sure whether i have a problem or not or wether its becuz i now and then shave my belly becuz of the very faint brown hairs which is like fair hair its annoying becuz i shave it grows faster and comes bk =/ if we have the spearmint tea will it stop the hair and will u have to shave it off and hope it doesn’t grow back as bad? i am rly conffussed not really sure it stops the hair growth problem .. i know how u gals feel n guys =/ xx
I have 13 years to sell the meat to pay my brother I leave school at age 13 to 13 years in the business
I am 12 and have pretty much hairy for most of my life. I don’t know why. It’s all over my arms, stomach, back and especially on my legs. I am too scared to ask my mum about shaving or waxing. Would someone pls give me some advice to help me bring it up to my mum to help me get rid of all of it???
it’s alright i have hairy arms as well but i have bleached mine and on my legs.i have some dark hair at the bottom of my back! you dont have to be afraid to ask your mum! nearly every girl at your age shaves.you can tell your mum any thing thats what she is there for. dont be afraid i asked and she was fine with it! just ask her i bet when you do you will feel much better . pleaseeee reply ….. thats if you ask your mum . Jade x
hey i had the same problem…
my solution was to just start shaving without asking my mom…
she eventualy found out and asked me why… i just told her it was imbarasing and i was tired of it … she didnt ask me to stop… im sure she understood because im hiary from evry wear so i rely couldnt hide it (my upper lip and arms are the worst)
And I agree with whoever said “your beautiful from the inside out” if ur healthy ur insides are beautiful and that creates a beautiful outside. Skin problems and hair problems or body pains come from whatever is going on in the inside of our bodies, if we eat healthy our body gets healthy n fit causing our blood stream to be good n clean and fat free, or bacteria free which will cause our skin not only to be clear but to have a glow as well, if u take care of ur insides it will for sure show on ur outsides, we have excessive body hair because inside of us there’s an imbalancment which also causes acne in some cases, if we don’t drink enough water we get yellowish skin or dark circles beneath our eyes or we get constipated, if we have a lot of soda, we can break out and have bad teeth, not only doesn it stain teeth but it melts the enamel causes the teeth to be very sensitive, if not very then a little and then eventually very sensitive, because it weakens the teeth, teeth are made of enamel, cherish them, once u lose enamel it takes yrs to get it back, some don’t even get it back. Ok so I made my point, whatever is going on in our insides is most likelyy like 99% likely going to appear on our outsides, every flaw, ache or disorder has its cause n reason, even acne needs medical help not cvs over the counter help or pro active help, not all ppl have the same problem inside them just because they all have acne, different people have different problems that need to be solved professionally , as in by ur doctor, saves money and time, a doctor will give u direct and exact help while over the counter and online products take advantage of ur desperate need for help =(
Everyone please talk to ur doctor no matter what is bothering u, or hurts or shouldn’t be on ur skin, don’t take one doctors opinion either, get a few opinions and check out ur symptoms on web md, u don’t have to accept ur flaws or what u hate, if u do, more power to u, but if u don’t accept it then do something about it don’t be sad and forever insecure, that’s never fun and nottt the way to go!
Take care all =) now gooooo see a specialist! Treatment takes a while so u best get started, not to mention it took me 5 weeks to get an appointment, im sure after reading this page u’vbe realized u aren’t the only one with this problem, same at the doctors so make an appoitment asap!
I’ve had a normal amount of body hair until the age of 14, I started to get baby hairs on my breasts and inbetween them, and on my tummy and upper arms, lower back n butt. I just decided to keep it hidden until 9 months ago I told my doctor I think I have a hormone imbalancement and she disagreed because I didn’t have irregular periods, she offered birth control tho, and had me take a blood test, she said everything was fine n I can’t be treated for anything, 6 months later my insurance changed my doctor due to my age, so I told my new doctor I had ireegular periods to see if she will prescribe to me hormonal imbalancement pills, but she didn’t, she instead wrote me a refferal to see a specialist who is amazingg btw. Anyways he as well as my old doctor made me get a blood test, a huge one, they filled 4 tubes of my blood! He tested me for everything and anything close to imbalancement, and when he got the results he said I have serverely low female stuff and high male hormones, he basically told me im serverily half man haha anyways he gave me hormonal pills that cleared up my skin of breakout, and cleared my facial hair and my arm hair and even in my private area, and legs, and even armpits grow wayy less hair and it also takes weeks for it to grow back, I also had alottt of lower back pain for 7 yrs, I could never stand too long, sit too long not even lay down too long, and out of no where it stopped hurting and I believe its from the treament, I haven’t had back pain since I started the treament n im so thankful, I felt like an 80 yr old at just the age of 15 and was upset I couldn’t go as far as I wanted to in jogging or cleaning up my house . The specialist also prescribed diabettic pills to help me lose wait and vitamin b12 which breaks down fat cells and boost energy levels and stuff. U can get b12 pills over the counter, but he got me a nasal spray that was only good for 8 uses, and I use it once a week as directed. He also told me to take another blood test in 7 weeks and then come see him on the following week, I don’t know if he wanted to see me 8 weeks later to see if the treatment, and I won’t know until my insurance is back because I was just cut off last week =( but the meds are still available for a yr, I just have to pay out of my pocket for now , I will continue taking the med until im insured again, im sure there’s a reason the med has 3 refills before 2011, and just to be safe im going to keep takingthem because I know im not done because I still have a bit of chest hair, and my lower back and butt hair is still right here, they were the main reason I seen a specialist yet they’re they only parts of me that have not been cured , I hope within time it will tho, maybe the back area needs more time than anything else..
Anyways my point is, I highly recommand all of u to see a specialist, ur doctor should refer one to u, do not accept bithcontrol as an option, argue with ur doctor or lie like I have, if I didn’t lie, I wouldn’t have been treated, my firs doctor made a mistake and thank god I didn’t listen to her.
Even if the hormonal imbalancement treatment does not get rid of the exccessive body hair its still balancing ur hormones out which is very important because women with imbalancement will forever have difficulties getting pregnant and if they do get pregnant its dangerous to her and the baby, also my specialist told me my anger and aggression comes from having too much male hormones, and so does my tomboy behavior.
Also children as wrong as 11 years old can have imbalancements, its best to treat it asap. Good luck ladies, u can email me if u’d like me to keep u updated =)
Hey i would love to be updated, My problem is kind of similar, and i asked my sister if i might have more Male hormones because i have peach fuzz on my back, in between my breast, my stomach and my Butt (Very Embarrassing hehe) She says No you’re Fine and when you’re 18 you can just go and Laser them but i am just 14 ! I want to enjoy my life and i can only laser after 4 years .. I have to spend Hours in the washroom shaving my whole Body .. Its so annoying, I cry at Night thinking i would creep out people if they knew about it, It is very depressing tho My sister or mom dont take me seriously, My mom is Totally hairless and My sister is gonna start her Laser Treatment, I am Stuck, I hate it :( I would be so Glad if you reply really (PS- I couldnt find your Email to contact You)
Hi, wanted to ask you a question about the hormonal pills, do they have to be prescriped by the doctor to get them? and thanks for sharing that..i hope it works for me too.
also i forgot to add, what is the name of the hormonal pills can u give us some more info about it please
Ok, im a model and this is an insane issue for me, i have black hairs from between my boobs to below my bellybutton, i also get a moustashe, which really sucks, i just get it waxed, which is fine i guess, but the problem is my stomach, the hairs are like over 1cm long! it sucks. And on my arms, i bleach them but really they are black, i get hair on my fingers, toes and feet too. I find it weird that i get all this black hair since the hair on my head is a natural blond, I also have very broad shoulders for a girl and no boobs, i must have alot of male hormones, hahaa.
hey did u end up getting any help with specailist in the end ? sorry i’m just freaked out by myself having fair hair on my belly and breasts do u know anything to get rid off em yet if not please keep me updated so i know it isn’t bad i’m just worrid it might end up bad =/
thanks sorry …
two years ago i was hairless. then out of no where, i started getting really hairy. lower stomach, face, butt… it has made me feel so down..
when it first started, i was 15, i started lazer hair removal, but it cost so much, hurt so much and it wasnt working because “my hormones” ??
two years on and i still hate it. i know everyone says that shaving is bad, but i do it anyway (not my face) it makes me feel smooth and hairless and that makes me happy. for my face i use the epilator. it kind hurts, but its not so bad. nobody even knows that im hairy there. that too makes me happy.
ive been told to go on the pill, but my mother wont allow me to because apparently it makes you gain weight. i like my figure and i dont want to gain weight so i guess mum has a point.
the worst part is when im around boys. i just feel so nervous because i dont want them to notice. id feel so scared and embarressed. but the good part is that im now 17 and there are many boys who are interested in me and think im the most beautiful girl in the world. they say im perfect haha but little do they know about this hair problem of mine.
so girls out there, it does suck being hairy. straight out it does. but dont let that get in the way of living your life. and esp. dont let it get in the way with boys :)
aslong as you know how to hide it or get rid of it i guess you will be fine. because i am. hope use can all be happy to xx
Hi everyone!

I’m a hispanic male in my 30″s that has been in relationships with females with this hairy issue! and I’ve accepted there beauty as is! take in mind I’m a handsome fit guy! so just because I have a open mind does not make me weird!! They’ve felt that they are not accepted because society today in especially in the lime life feels that you have to be a a certain way to be accepted and that’s false! we are created equal with all sorts of beauty!! in the Garden you find so many different beautiful flowers!! not are flowers look the same right! of course you may be fond bushier leaves flower and others may like them with less leaves but they both are beautiful right! some people like both lots of leaves and less leave! to me beauty is in the eye of the beholder! however for me there is no different in beauty whether a girl is hairier than the other! it does not matter if the hair on her head is longer or shorter! its how she accepts and loves herself! once you love and accept your self than it does not matter who accepts you or not( believe me not all people will accept you if you were non hairy! think how you would handle that! i’D THINK the same way you should handle it now)! if you are hairy or not! regardless someone will be talking about you behind your back! so please girls accept yourself first! if want to try to attempt to do something about it because you personally dont like like it not because you seen others) then try the procedure you think works for you! brazilian, laser or this spearmint tea then go for it! but please come to a reality with self first and base your like and dislike on you, not what others say! cause other can lead you down a black hole of depression if you allow them too! (ITS A EVIL WORLD OUT THERE GIRLS! DONT FALL FOR THE WORDS OF THE WORLD! they are like bubbles in the air, when bubbles pop, there is nothing there) learn to accept and love yourself! me myself I love you all! hairy or not! you are special beautiful!! sad that not everyone in the world see it that way! but then again! each one of of us in the world have our own opinion! but don’t live off the opinions of others cause that will drive you crazy! take care of you! and keep your head up!
That is so true start with you inside first, then I will ease up a little on me
Thank you so much. I read this comment and I thought it was awesome because it was good to get a guys opinion, it was an incredibly sweet thing to say, it made me laugh, and it was true. Thanks for being a great guy, us girls need more guys like you!
Okay, So I am a 13 year old girl. And I am having may problems with extra hairs. I can not drink tea it causes me too break out. And I have shaved most of the hair. it always grows back much much darker. Around my face I can not get rid of the hair. My boyfriend keeps teasing me about it. I get very nervious. Once I began too cry! I just need very much help…..It’s not turning out too well for me. Help me, please?
I really feel for you sweetie as I have had the same problem all my life and I am now 38 years old! I have spent so much money, time, pain and tears on so many products that promise results, and I have only found one thing that works. LASER TREATMENT. After 2 treatments I can honestly say that the hair has already stopped growing, although the person I am currently seeing says that it takes 6-8 treatments to have full results. You only have to go once a month, and it doesn’t take long at all. You will also find that it is getting very cheap these days and most beauty parlours offer this. Please try this sweetie because as you get older, the problem only gets worse. You said you are already shaving the area so there’s nothing you have to do to prepare yourself. They just don’t want you to pluck or wax it. All the best.
Its amazing to see how many people also suffer from this..this site however has definitely made me feel more “normal”,however this blog is great but i also believe there should be a website where woman can discuss this problem and talk about their experiences and products they have used and there results.. or is there any website already out there that im unaware of??im really interested however in the No!No! hair remover,(www.no-no.com) it is quite expensive however – $289.00 and im wondering is it worth investing in?if anyone has had previous experiences PLEASE REPLY :) and let me no .. thank you.. also about an epilator and good brands that genuinely work?? i am a young lady and its the 21st century there HAVE to be solutions … i am gonna try the tea too.. hope it works :)
I’ve got polycystic ovaries so am covered in hair Had to shave face at least once a day. I’ve just bought the new braun wet and dry epilators and used on my face and not shaved for a week. There are a few red sores, but get that with shaving anyhow so . . . all good ;o)
im 14 years old.a girl.i have hair on my stomach,a little on upper back and lower back.and on my but.i didnt tell my mother about it.so i just decided to shave it.and now o my somch its so thick and dark when it grows back.im so embaresed by it.i need something 2 get rid of it.or something
im 20 years old female i don’t know if i got hirsutism but i was browsing to see any causes of women having alot of body hair because i was having that problem bad, i havent went to a doctor about it but after reading the descriptions i see thats what i might have. it was very emberassing because i have alot of hair on my legs, stomach,back,arms,and everywhere else u can think of and shaving doesnt do know good because it will grow back 2 days later and look as though i nevered shaved.i didnt think much of it because every women goes through this, until i realized i have it much worse,and my boyfriend joke about that it looks like i growing a mustache and felt before i even notice a few strands under my chin and face. I really thought i was alone and less feminine but im glad im not and i hope that spearmint stuff works too
I noticed I was hairier than my friends when I was 13. It didn’t help much that my Mum wouldn’t let me shave my legs or under my arms and I got hair on my upper lip. At school I was picked on because of it. As I have got older (Im 35 now). I have noticed that it has gradually got worse. My bikini line is a nightmare. I now get hair round my nipples and lower stomach. I hate it when I get invited swimming as it is such a chore to remove the hair. Recently I have started to go to a chiropractor which involves stripping to your underwear. Totally embarrassing so I now where cycling shorts over my boy shorts.
I will give this tea a go, but I won’t hold my breath. As for the girls who are worried about getting intimate with guys. Please don’t worry. It hasn’t seem to of been an issue with the guys I have been with. And if it was then they are so not worth it. Your are not alone.
