Is it good for women not to have pubic hair?

Most women do not want their body hair to be too thick, because wearing cool clothes in the summer is very unsightly and has a certain impact on their image. Some women have very little hair on their body surface, or even no hair in their private parts. Is it good for women not to have pubic hair? As we all know, pubic hair is a sign of female maturity, but some women do not have pubic hair even after they have fully developed.

1. Is it normal for women not to have pubic hair?

Pubic hair is a sign of female maturity. It usually starts to grow at the age of 12 or 14 and is basically fully grown by the age of 17. It helps prevent friction of the genitals during sexual intercourse and enhances sexual pleasure.

Vulvar alopecia refers to the symptom of sparse or no pubic hair after the growth period of puberty. About 2% have no pubic hair at all, and about 12% have very sparse pubic hair. Patients with alopecia may develop a sense of shame and inferiority due to physical inconvenience, especially male patients who may have a more serious fear than female patients.

Since the endocrine system, menstrual cycle, sexual function and fertility of most women with hypotrichosis are normal, hypotrichosis is physiological and will not affect their health and happy marriage life, so there is no need to worry about it.

For the treatment of alopecia, it is appropriate to apply ointments containing male hormones topically, but the effect is minimal. To cure it fundamentally, hair transplantation surgery is needed to correct it. If the pubic hair is an inverted triangle, the growth direction and inclination angle of the pubic hair should be considered, and approximately 700 to 800 hair follicles need to be transplanted for correction. In the early stages, the growth characteristics of pubic hair may be similar to those of hair, but after a period of use of underwear, it will become curly.

Nowadays, women can receive treatment to make pubic hair grow on their vulva. If women have no pubic hair on their vulva, there is no need to feel inferior.

2. How do women care for their pubic hair?

Women pay great attention to their personal hygiene, especially the cleanliness of their private parts. Especially women with vulva hair should pay more attention to hygiene and take good care of their pubic hair to protect the health of their vulva. The following are some methods for caring for female pubic hair for your reference.

1. Choose high-quality underwear

If the underwear is not chosen properly, it will cause unnecessary traction on the pubic hair, which may cause symptoms of inflammation of the hair follicles and the growth of small nodules.

2. Ensure good ventilation environment

Pubic hair, like hair on some other parts of the body, has the function of reducing friction and maintaining ventilation. However, even if the pubic hair itself has the conditions for "ventilation", if we always keep our private parts in an environment with poor air circulation, the pubic hair will still not be able to play its due role. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a good ventilation environment for the pubic hair to avoid staying in an environment where the air is not easily exchanged and the air humidity is too high for a long time.

3. Prevent and treat pubic hair-related diseases

Among the diseases related to pubic hair, pubic lice is one of the more common ones. Generally speaking, pubic lice can be contracted through contact, whether through sexual intercourse, sharing underwear, or using a blanket. Therefore, more attention must be paid to basic personal hygiene. If you are unfortunately infected with pubic lice, the best way is to shave your pubic hair to cut off the space for pubic lice to grow.

4. General care of pubic hair

Pubic hair generally does not require special care, but you must ensure adequate cleanliness, be careful not to cause excessive stimulation, and be careful about the hygiene of shared facilities.
