    Default Wierd hair disorder!

    Hello there fellow women. I recently found this forum and haven't made an account until today.

    I hope I can share my problem with you guys and someone will understand.

    I have a problem with hair growing in odd places. NO matter how often I wax/shave I have a moustache and beard growing on my face, and my leg hair is abnormally long (im talking 3 inches in a week). I feel like some sort of animal and I'm wondering if you have heard of a disorder such as this, the wierdest part about it is that I'm going bald on my head.

    I think a whole lot of people can identify with that.where I come from, it is pervalent.However, you can only allow people make you inferior with your consent.Hold your head high and you could be the catalyst to start a hairy trend.in this case, you have a soulmate

    The first thing you should do is see a physician to determine the cause of your excess hair (the medical name for this is hirsutism). Sometimes, excess hair growth is hereditary, but in women, the problem often is due to abnormally high levels of male hormones (androgens). All women produce some androgen, but if your levels are too high, you can develop some male characteristics, including deepening of the voice and increased muscle mass, as well as acne and irregular menstrual periods. This may not be the cast, but it's worth looking into.

    hi, i am very hairy to, not as much as you but i can relate. i have (pcos) polycystic ovarian syndrome. this is where you have chemical imbalances in your body, it is not just that there is a lot more to it but we will stay on subject. pcos can be hereditory a few of the women in my family have it. it is very embarasing but i would suggest you go and get tested, you will feel much better when you know what is going on with your body. good luck hope i helped!!!
