Is it good for a woman to have an Adam’s apple?

When we talk about Adam's apple, the first thing we think of is that it is a man's characteristic. However, some women in real life actually have Adam's apples. This is related to the body's endocrine system and is also partly due to genetic factors. However, it is not common for women to have Adam's apples, so many women with this condition feel embarrassed and even think it is bad luck. So is it a good fate for a woman to have an Adam's apple?

Why do women have Adam's apple?

It has nothing to do with sex: it doesn’t mean it’s very manly

Since the Adam's apple does not represent "manliness", it is not surprising that some women have slightly prominent Adam's apples. There may be three reasons:

First, endocrine dysfunction: the dominant sex hormone in women's bodies is estrogen, which also contains very small amounts of androgen. However, when the secretion of female hormones is not enough, the content of male hormones increases relatively. This may also lead to masculine characteristics such as a large Adam's apple, excessive hair, and a deeper voice.

Second, genetic factors: if the father has a particularly large Adam's apple, it may be passed on to his daughter;

Third, thinness: being too thin will make you look like just bones, and the Adam's apple in your throat will appear particularly prominent.

In addition, it is also possible that the thyroid gland of adolescent girls has physiological enlargement. This is because the metabolism is too active and the iodine supply is relatively insufficient, resulting in physiological iodine deficiency. The thyroid gland becomes enlarged as a result, but because the enlarged thyroid gland is just below the Adam's apple, it is mistakenly thought to be a protruding Adam's apple.

It is easy to deal with the prominent Adam's apple in women once the cause is found. If it is due to endocrine problems, the masculine characteristics of women can be changed by treating the primary disease and regulating the endocrine system. If it is because of being too thin or genetic reasons, in addition to making yourself rounder, if it affects your appearance and causes inferiority complex, you can undergo Adam's apple reshaping surgery to restore the beauty of the female Adam's apple. However, this treatment must wait until puberty is complete (18 years old).

So, my friends, men with less prominent Adam's apples should not feel inferior and lose confidence, and girls with more prominent Adam's apples should not think that they are tomboys. It has nothing to do with sexual function and naturally has nothing to do with sexual behavior.
