| I started getting that in my late 20s. I pluck the ones on my chin and shave the ones under my chin. But I am hairy in general and have unwanted hair everywhere. My arms are incredibly hairy too. |

I have dark hair on my neck, heavy hair on my chin and light blonde hair round my lip. And I'm 21  I dont really get periods either, could it be hormone problems?

| Assuming PCOS, what can be done?? I have it, and have yet to find a dr who can help me. Metformin does nothing, bcp makes me gain weight... I want to do something abt it, but what can make my horomones change?? |

Hi,
I have discovered the same thing, over the last few months. I'm 31. I had one on my neck, which was really long (!), i was mortified I hadn't noticed it! But since plucking it a couple of times, it hasn't come back, however, a couple have now sprung up on my chin. I have to beg my Husband to take 5 minutes to pluck them for me! (TMI, but I also have a couple of hairs around my nipples, which have been there for years, which I pluck regularly, these show no signs of abating!) Plus my navel is fuzzier, since i've had a my baby, but i've just left it alone, as I've got enough plucking to do as it is! I put it down to hormones after being pregnant and/or age!! I've dyed my hair since I was 12, so have no idea if I have any grey hairs, but am tempted to grow it out just to see! |

I am 35 years old now, I had the same problem when I was 30 for nearly two years ... couple of long dark hairs growing on my neck -at the same time I had had a gynaecology problem an ovarian cyst....which had grown to 10cm I had a full assessment from the doctor and he went through symptoms for a cyst and one of the symptoms was abnormal hair growing on the neck or even on the face- I had emergency surgery for the cyst and the hairs have never grown back -I was told its to do with the hormones so its worth getting checked out although everybody's different I assume there's allsorts of other reasons too.

I've had these for years. For me, it is genetic (I'm 38 now, but have been plucking for at least 10-15 years).
All I can say is that you get used to plucking these. I do agree tho - do not shave. Pluck (if just a few) or wax (if a bunch). I know nothing about laser treatments... |

| I am So Sorry that you have this problem, I truely empathize as I have the same problem, started with a few that are easy to pluck with tweezers then they multiply into too many, so what can I do but shave em off. Now I have em on my throat and I shaved em n now I'm sore there, also the peach fuzz seems to get longer and more noticeable. Its like what the heck, not cool for a woman to have beard and Quakers, So Embarrassing, I So Empathize with you. I Hope you find an answer soon. Good Luck. |
