What Causes Excess Facial And Body Hair Growth In Women?
Hello, my name is Lacy and I am 22 years old and I m having problems with facial/body hair overgrowth. It makes me very uncomfortable and self conscious. Just curious to see if it s something wrong hormonally? I also have a lot of ingrown hairs on my pubic area that can be very painful at times.Thanks
