Hello everyone,
I have to pluck/tweezer my eyebrows, chin, neck and upper lip every day.The hairs that grow are very coarse and dark like a mans whiskers would grow through. I am naturally dark haired although dont have excessively hairy legs, pits, lady garden (sorry to be so frank but making a point here). I have in times gone by used hair removal creams, waxing, bleaching etc but only to find they either looked terrible or grew back too quickly and just couldnt afford to keep on top of them. Plucking is free but time consuming and God knows new ones are sprouting all the time!!! Having read into it for years, and having been tested for PCOS (although dont have any of the other associated symptoms) and for possible faulty thyroid, but I've been told all is fine. I do think there may be a link brought about by androgens/excess testosterone as a result of being so obese. Anyone else have the same issue or been told by medics that excess hair and obesity are linked?
Cheers - off to have my evening pluck - LOL that sounds rude, so sorry!!
