Hi! just wandering something and hope you can help, we women are not suppost to have this hair on our face but we do and we don't know how to get read of them,
some man decide to have operation and became women and their hair will go compleatly,
well! some of them have not hair at all! do you know how they manage that?
do they take anything to lower the testosterone level? if they do can't we?
Thank you
I've actually watched shows about this. Typically they do laser hair removal. Many, many rounds of it as far as I can tell. This is a good question though. Seems like we could learn a lot from them on how to "deal" with the hair issues.
I asked this question once to an endo at the hospital and she told me, they
are taking also BCP Diane 35 and Androcur in a very very very high doses. Would be to high for women.
Then I asked her if they wont gain some weight and she replied thats exactly what they want to. They wont a feminine body and no hair at all.
I am glad someone wonders the same thing I keep saying. I said the same thing to my hubby the other day. How can these guys who want to be women get rid of their facial hair by taking hormones when they can't give me something to lower my testosterone. Also,how can girls who want to be guys take testoterone to grow hair with no problem but they can't give us something to lower ours!!!
I know I am currently using progesterone cream to try and help my hormones.My NP keeps telling me that once we figure out the right dosage for my body that then the progesterone will level out my testosterone.HMHMHMHMH!!! I guess we will see if it really works.I am doubtful!!!!

Good question -- and yes, some of us have asked it.
There are several aspects to the answer.
For a start, these men must live for some time -- often a year -- as a woman before there will be any operation carried out. During that time they may be on female hormones (often by birth control pills) to counteract the effect of the testosterone they produce.
If they go on to have the operation, that involves removal of both the penis and the testicles. Once the testicles are removed, the individual concerned will produce less testosterone than the average woman. However, since his body will have been more sensitised to testosterone than the average woman's body, he will need high doses of estrogen and that may well be given nowadays by an implant. In other words, not only has such a person had passably realistic-looking female genitals created, but the testicles removed and a hormone balance within the normal female range created.
Removal of the testicles reduces the beard growth to a tiny fraction of what it was before, even without the administration of estrogen. With estrogen as well, beard growth virtually stops. In these circumstances electrolysis works very well.
The problem we face is that the major part of the testosterone which causes us such problems is coming from our ovaries which in some respects are functioning as testicles as far as testosterone production is concerned. Many of us also face problems because of low production of SHBG which controls the amount of testosterone that's let loose in the system. Removal of the ovaries would not be an acceptable answer to most of us, while to a sex-change male removal of the testes is usually something desired. I think the number of us who would wish to be neutered and then have our hormones externally adjusted would be very small, except in cases of absolute medical necessity. There's no reason, though, if that course of action were followed, for it to be any less successful in controlling hair growth than the comparable process in men.
Hi! it sounds like there is no hope, i done laser for 12 month just a bit better but they still ruff and growing fast, someone told me that in north africa(algeria) and england they do the broken veins on the face , have you ever heard abaut this???
thank you for your replys

You need to get your hormones well inside the normal female range before you can be confident of getting good results with laser. If your skin is sensitive to testosterone stimulation and you have free testosterone levels in the male range, you're likely to have coarse, male-type moustache and beard growth that's going to be intractable until you get the free testosterone levels down.
Yes my hair are like you describe them and the testosterone level its high so is it like my doctor said that to get the testosterone level down i have to loose weight???
is this the only solution?
Thank you
Hi! but if i take the Aldactone and Flutamide would it work even i am so over weight?

I was 240 pounds when I started aldactone, and lost about 20 pounds before switching to flutamide, and then went on to lose another 70 pounds.
