Why do girls have hair around their nipples?

Nowadays, women are very concerned about whether their breasts are big or small, but very few women care about whether their breasts are healthy. All symptoms are manifested externally, so when there are any abnormal manifestations in the chest, we should pay attention to it. Most women have clean breasts, but a very small number of women have hair on their nipples. What is the reason for this? Is it normal to have more hair around the nipples? Let's take a closer look.

1. The reason why the areola around women's nipples grows hair

Normal reason: Every woman has hair follicles around her nipples. From the beginning of human growth and development, the nipples will begin to have more hair, but some people have more and some people have less. If you feel that there is hair growing around your nipples and you can't stand the sight of it, you can use scissors to cut it off. If you think your nipple hair is unsightly, you can remove it or use laser treatment for permanent hair removal. But remember, you cannot shave with a razor or pluck with medical tweezers, as this will increase the risk of inflammation inside the hair and hair follicles.

Abnormal cause: caused by polycystic ovarian syndrome. Polycystic ovary syndrome is an endocrine disease characterized by enlarged ovaries with numerous fluid-filled cysts, elevated testosterone levels, and inability to ovulate. Because the male hormone level is too high and ovulation cannot occur, the patient may suffer from infertility. The patient will also have excessive hair, excessive hair around the nipples, and be prone to acne, oily skin, obesity and other symptoms. If you find that you have other symptoms besides excessive nipple hair, you must go to the hospital for a physical examination in time.
