Body hair!

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
I am usually hairy. I pluck 5 - 10 hairs a day off of my upper lip & chin; have to wax below the belly button (quite a happy trail) and have a peach fuzz butt

But the past week I have turned into an Italian man! My bottom has sprouted dark hair, and it is horrible! My lip hair has accelerated and my scalp has reverted back to teenage greasiness.

My last pregnancy the hair growth slowed down! I'm only 6 weeks pregnant! WHAT IS GOING ON?! I can't take 9 months of this.

even though I had almost no extra hair growth with DS or DD1... DD2 I felt like a werewolf!

I have hair issues due to PCOS, I am wondering if things are going to get worse for me too. I am about 7 weeks. I have hair on the lower belly too and it's driving me nuts!

What kind of wax do you use to remove it? I am curious...

forget my legs and underarms.. before i could get a way with 2 or 3 days between shaves, now.. pssh! overnight i've got.

I had the same problem ( am hairy by nature to begin with as well, so can identify with the original poster) but it got crazy when I was pregnant! I shave below my belly button anyway but after i got pregnant it was like a jungle! Good news is about 6 months to a year after having my daughter I was back to normal although the linea negra took a little longer to go away.... I have often wondered if I have PCOS as well since sometimes I have long and irregular cycles with multiple episodes of fertile signs in one cycle sometimes.
