I am so glad that I found this site. I just signed up to become a member after reading so many stories and crying for over a half an hour. I have been "dealing" with hair growth since I was 13 and am now 22. My mother started making me go to the doctor for the hair growth and the fact that I have a very irregular period. I kept getting the same thing from the doctors, that I needed to be on birth control for abnormal hormones. The birth control regulated my periods but did nothing for the hair growth. I tried bleach, waxing, creams, gels... just about anything you could get to do at home to remove hair. Nothing really seemed to work well for me so I began to shave. I think the first time was one of the most mortifying situations for me, to be a woman and have to shave like a man does every day. I have hair on my lip, chin, neck, face, chest and stomach with a few strays on my back. I was sure I was never going to find someone that accepts me with this. But that was not the case. My fiance loves me regardless. I know there is someone out there feeling the same way I was. Don't give up hope if it's you. There will be a good man that loves and accepts you for who you are. And I want to thank everyone for sharing their stories as well. It really touched me to know that I'm not alone. I feel now that I have a way to talk to others that are dealing with the same things I am, another burdon has just been lifted. I would like to get to know some friends to discuss this along with everything else in life, if they choose to. My email is
krngodess1313@juno.com if anyone would like to talk.
