After a woman's ovaries become diseased, the hair in this area will definitely increase

The highest compliment the ancients gave to women’s skin was “as white as cream.” This is not an ordinary requirement. In addition to being fair, it must also be smooth, so excessive body hair becomes a sin... Some people abroad have done some statistics: for normal people aged 15-44, 30% have a mustache, 9% have obvious cheek hair, 6% have thicker hair below the temples, and 30% and 70% have darker and thicker hair on the forearms and calves respectively.

Excessive hair growth is sometimes a sign of ovarian disease

Before girls remove their hair, they must first understand a disease: polycystic ovary syndrome. A typical feature of this disease is increased hair growth, especially on the calves, arms, midline of the abdomen, vulva and around the anus, with a masculine tendency in hair distribution. However, when these symptoms appear, many people do not realize that they should go to the gynecology or endocrinology department for examination, but go to the dermatology department or beauty salon, which delays the treatment of the disease. Doctors say that this disease not only affects personal image, it also brings some unexpected long-term hazards - because of long-term amenorrhea and anovulation in polycystic ovary syndrome, the endometrium is continuously stimulated by estrogen, without progesterone to counteract and periodic endometrial shedding, so the risk of endometrial cancer increases. At the same time, polycystic ovary syndrome often has insulin resistance, so the incidence of hypertension, diabetes, and coronary heart disease increases. The cause of the disease is still unclear, but modern lifestyle and genetic factors have an impact on it.

Excessive hairiness may be the result of your own actions

Drugs can cure diseases, but they can also harm and disfigure the body, especially when abused. You may have heard of "Fu Qingsong" and "Pi Yan Ping". These hormone-containing ointments have always been regarded as a panacea for treating skin diseases because of their good efficacy and wide application. But in fact, long-term use will produce side effects such as facial capillary dilation, hirsutism, pigmentation, skin atrophy, etc. Moreover, once sensitive skin caused by hormonal dermatitis is formed, allergic reactions can easily occur when using normal cosmetics. If triamcinolone ointment is applied for more than 1 month due to eczema, the hair will become longer, darker, and thicker. Therefore, if you have a skin disease, you must use medication reasonably under the guidance of a doctor and never self-medicate.

In order to achieve good athletic performance, they must treat hair as their “enemy”

Removing excess body hair is not only for aesthetic reasons, but for athletes, it may also affect their final performance. Road cyclists must shave their legs because it increases the risk of danger: when gravel and grit get embedded in the skin, it's easier to clean and bandage the wound without hair. If you fall, the contact of your exposed skin with the asphalt of the road will definitely have one most direct result: your skin will be torn off mercilessly. Not only does it make it easier to clean wounds if there is no messy body hair, but when the wound heals and the gauze is torn off, it will also save you from physical pain if no body hair is pulled off at the same time. After testing, Stanford University swimming coach Skip Kenny concluded that swimmers can increase their speed in the water by 2% if they shave all their body hair. At the Beijing Olympics, Phelps, who won the third gold medal, revealed at the press conference that he and his teammates would shave their body hair before the competition. This is probably one of the "secrets" to his victory.

TIPS: The more you shave, the heavier the hair will be.

Many people worry that shaving or plucking will cause their body hair to grow thicker, denser, and darker. In fact, the number of human hair follicles is fixed since birth, so there is no problem of hair becoming denser the more you shave. The color of body hair is related to local endocrine system, and there is no problem of hair getting darker the more you shave. However, these practices will stimulate the body hair to enter the next growth phase, so the body hair will grow again easily. In fact, from a physiological point of view, hair is beneficial to the body. If there is no special need, it is best to let body hair grow naturally.

It is normal for women to have excessive hair growth, but it should never be taken lightly. Therefore, when you find that your body hair suddenly increases, it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up in time, because you may have ovarian disease. Ovarian diseases are very harmful, so they should be checked and diagnosed and treated as soon as possible.
