i also have that when i was doing my research i was wondering if that was a symptom of pcos but it was not listed so i guess it has something to do with acne

I have these underneath my breasts. Mine don't have hair in them. When I don't wear a bra and sweat a lot I get them. DO not pop them. Mine have become infected in the past and I had to put antibiotic ointment on them and gauze. I am crazy with the picking. I think it is a form of acne.

I have em too, had em a long time before I got diagnosed.

Mine are tiny tiny little hairs (I tend to think of as feathers, I don't know why lol) and often have white thick substance if pushed.

Sometimes they turn into like a whitehead or acne looking head and I HATE IT!!!!!!!!

What are they do we think?

I have that too. Mine didn't start until last year. And they cover the underside of my boobs. I think its so gross, and I feel like I HAVE to pop them. Ew..

Vlal

I wish there was a way to get rid of them! I also wonder why do we seem to suddenly have got them and then they won't go away. I noticed them appear a few years ago and I have had them ever since.

So i thought it was just me who got those weird white clumpy like acne on my boobs. I am so glad its not just some crazy me thing! I am obsessed with plucking the little white clumps out and sadly have several painful "owies." Now I am afraid one is becoming infected, but I am way to embarassed to mention this to my doctor. Any thoughts? If I actually can bring myself to leave it alone you think it will heal on its own?

Once again so glad I am not a freak with something no one else has!
This is why I love this board!

I'm so glad I found this. Mine sound the most like MissChrystal's. The only difference is that I don't have to push at them to get the white substance. The white substance kind of sticks out. I can grab it all with a tweezer. The hairs are very fine, sometimes more than one (feather is a good description). They almost look like tiny little fibers instead of hairs. I asked my OB about them last year and he thought it was just from dampness (when you are a 42DD it does get damp under there LOL). Except I've had them for 8 years (6 years before my diagnosis, so I didn't think they were related).

I've been searching the internet and when I used the word "fiber" I got a bunch of hits for a horrifying sounding disease called Morgellon’s Disease. Scared the crap out of me (except the people describe this as a quick onset and I've had this for 8 years). I'm so glad I found this! It's actually a relief to know it's PCOS related!!

I actually wash down with alcohol. It seems to help dry them out and if i think i picked one too bad i just put some alchohol on it so it doesnt become infected...hope this helps.

Hi everyone !!! I only joined today, I came by this website by accident but i am sooo glad it happened. I typed in a question to google about these little bumpy things on my boobies and eventually i found this wonderful site.
I have not been diagnosed with pcos because i havent been to my docs yet. I hate going there , they are a bit erm 'houghty toity' lol but i do think i display some of the symptoms.
I am very glad to know that ' titne' is quite a common thing.In fact it makes me smile, sooo many of us women get embarrassed about our bodies and we sholdnt really because we are all the same when it comes down to it but in different ways , if that makes sense lol
Anyway this website is brilliant because its so refreshingly honest and welcoming.
Now back to the titne lol, anybody had sucess in getting rid of them? :0)

omg, merc, I don't think cottage cheese thighs are anything like what you have, I always thought that cottage cheese thighs were cellulite. I have also had these white bumps, my friend had similar on her face. I do have the problem with the white stuff in my ear piercings, I thought that was calcium deposits, not soap. I never wear earings much, but I am always after that stuff because I get little bumps right in the holes and the get itchy. I am a picker too lol.

Ok girls, is this it? acne.org has a variety of info.

whiteheads-mag.gif


Whiteheads: Whiteheads result when a pore is completely blocked, trapping sebum (oil), bacteria, and dead skin cells, causing a white appearance on the surface. These types of acne lesions sometimes seem to be begging to be popped. Make sure you read about how to pop a pimple before you attempt this. Whiteheads are normally quicker in life cycle than blackheads. You can view a diagram of a whitehead on the what is acne page.
