Growth Question- Facial Hair
Posted: 03-18-06 23:39pm

Hi.
I recently turned 18.
I am concerned about my facial hair. I have little facial hair and is located only is certain part of my face, like my chin, the sides and a little on the throat and of course on top of the lips. However, this zones with facial hair have very little facial hair that I still have to shave about once a week, maybe twice a week, and it has been like that for the past 2 years.
Every other aspect of my body seems fine, is just the facial hair, it does not seem to be growing normally.
Any suggestions?
Thank you very much.

Whats normal? It doesn't sound like anything to worry about. My ex only grows facial hair on his chin and under his nose, everything else is baby smooth. He only shaves once a week and he's thirty.

I'm almost 25 and I have the exact same thing. I only have to shave about every 8-10 days, and only grow hair in the same places mentioned. I was concerned over it for a while, but have learned to live with it. Luckily, I prefer to be clean shaven anyway. No worries on it, it's not a big problem unless you want to look bohemian :d

Not having much facial hair could be a sign of low testosterone but I highly doubt it. As long as your libido is fine theres nothing to worry about.
