Default I shaving every day

Afterwards from enough time I feel the need to speak to somebody. My problem I do not know why it has taken unverifiable dimensions. Do you knowthat I shaving the person me the morning and late the midday has made shade from generation where growth again. For my body better I do not speak, would be the a lot of men that I would overcome in a competition hirsutism, hairs with they have everywhere flooded, in the breast, in the hands the legs, the back the abdomen the thighs. I do not know what to make, I have tried everything, if can somebody as helps.

OK, so you're hairier than a lot of men. You shave twice a day and it's still showing in the middle of the day.

What sort of razor are you using? I'd strongly suggest forgetting about everything except your face. I use a Norelco (they're called Philishave in Europe) men's rechrgeable electric razor and I take it to work with me, so that I can use it there if necessary.

That's one of the reasons I like my Norelco (Philishave outside the US). I can easily use it in the washroom in a stall. And if the door to the washroom opens and someone comes in I can simply stop using it and stay there until they go. But usually I find it better to go out at a break time and go away from my workplace if I will have to shave. I'll often pick a small restaurant where I know there's only a single washroom so no more than one person can be there at a time.

Have you spoken to your Doctor about giving you something? I took Spironolactin for a few months and my hirsutism cut down a lot. I've also heard of a new pill coming out to help with the growth, I can't remember the name of it but they have it in commercials. Maybe it's worth a shot? Good luck!!

I also use an electric razor. Although it was a little overwhelming at first to just give in and shave everyday, i'm much happier with the results than any good plain razor i ever used. If you get one though, you have to be patient, it takes a few weeks to start getting a good close shave if your hair is dark. I find on the light places, it works easily from the start, but took a little longer in darker areas to be happy with the results.

I would definitely ask your Dr to run some blood tests on your hormones and see if he can help.

It may be one instance where you might want to have a professional waxing a couple of days before and then shave on the morning of your wedding just to make doubly sure.

But have a word with your photographer a few days before. Simply tell him or her that you don't want your facial hair showing up, so no harsh light on close ups and soft focus where appropriate. If he or she is any use at all they'll be very familiar with the problem.

STOP USING THE RAZOR. A razor for some reason leaves a shadow and more hair grows back. I have been put on metaformin 2000 mg and then I use an enjoi or epilady to pluck my hairs now. I will say it is not the best feeling, but If you do this, the hair grows back slower and if you apply a mild astrigent (did I spell that correctly) like proactive, which I use the lotion it will cut down on ingrown hairs that may come.

The same here hun i am also marrying in October and i am not whether to have a wax the day before so my skin will look kind of clear and no hair will be visible.
I have tried waxing before but i think if i go to a professional it might help a bit.
I was scared that if i just shave by the evening it will be noticbale and i want to look flawless on our big day.

You really do sound at the end of your tether. When a relationship fails it is very sad....not all men will leave you because of the hair....honestly....there are lovely men out there.

Please speak to your doctor and find out about an anti androgen that will help slow down the hair growth and thin it out a bit, i am about to go down this route....why should we suffer when there are treatments available? Also perhaps talk about your feelings and see about getting an anti deppressant, if it is needed, this will help you feel loads better in the long run.

I have found that wearing make up helps lots....i have large dark eyes so i draw attention to those with eye make up, and i use a dusting of bronzer across my cheeks all this ontop of a good compact foundation and people will focus more on the eyes and no one seems to notice the stubble or long hair if i forget to trim. or its later in the day and i havnt made it to the razor.

Have you tried an epilator i find it very good for under my jaw that cobined with the shaving and the odd bit of bleaching and trimming keeps mine well disguised. also vaniqa is a good cream to slow down hair growth although it did bring me out in spots it still slowed down the hair. also like others have mention the philishave electric razors keep the hair at bay longer i am hoping to buy one of these too.

hope you feel better soon x

Unhappy

I tried plucking but my skin got soooooo irritated and then I started getting ingrown hairs so I stopped. I went to have laser removal and they told me NOT to pluck...Then I started shaving (oh the shame)
...but then I ran out of cash....it turns out that for darker skin tones the treatments has to be more but I still shave. My hubby says he doesnt care but my bestfriend's son called me "bearded lady" and I cried during the drive back home. I have "scars" from old treatments (I am 32 and I have been diag. since 1995). My chin is so dark and I have tried all kinds of treatments. My doctor is great BUT she wont treat or she is reluctant to treat the scars...everything else is great. My hubby and I are also trying to conceive so many drugs are out of the question...help for your "Cyster" in TX
