question on body hair

[Guest JoannaSydney]

does any one know how when the body hair starts to go from hrt how does it disappear.does it go away by going back into the skin deep down or as a result of shaving or waxing it just doesnt grow anymore.My concern is that through shaving if it doesnt grow back than it might get stuck flush with the surface and still be present in touch

First of all, your body hair won't disappear. Your body hair, like facial hair, has a growth cycle. At the end of the growth cycle the old hair is shed. This is a continuous process so you don't notice it. Starting hrt changes the growth cycle of the body hair so that it is much slower. Also, your body hair becomes finer so what does grow is not as obvious.

I cannot speak to HRT and hair growth, but what I can speak to is long term body shaving. I am now at the point where my underarms do not grow hair for weeks at a time. I can go for almost a week without shaving my legs and arms. Years ago none of this was true and I had to shave everything every day. I am happy to say that my body now gets it..no body hair

When I do need to shave my legs and arms is because the fine hairs start to be uncomfortable.

I love the feeling of bare skin against my clothes
