Quote from: suzifrommd on March 01, 2024, 06:42:26 AMI've been on E for eleven years now, had my bottom surgery 10 years ago. Since that time, my chest hair has continued to grow and need shaving about once a week. I lasered off all the dark hairs so all that's left are the white ones.
I'm "getting on in years" and my endo decreased my E dosage a few months ago so that I'll have E levels similar to post-menopausal cis AFAB women.
Now I've noticed that my chest hair has essentially stopped growing and no longer needs my once a week shave.
Anyone else experience this? Is there any reason why this should be? At this point I don't know if it's correlation or causation, but I'm really curious.
I never had much chest hair to start with as I was 21 when I started E, now some 13 plus years later, it never really appeared. I did shave, what little chest hair I had, in the beginning.. but somewhere long my journey, i stopped as it was not necessary anymore

But like you, after E the dark hairs disappeared. The light-colored hairs are very fine, almost invisible. The hair in my armpits stopped growing almost totally. I can get away with shaving the pits once every two months. Still have dark hair on my arms and legs but the hair is finer and not as noticeable.
Hugs!
I also had dark hair on arms and legs, i started shaving my arms (from fingers to shoulder), not long after I started shaving my legs (I shave from toes to hips). I cant tell you if the hair came back, as still today I still shave my arms every 2nd day along with my legs. I love that smooth feeling. I hairless arms I feel makes me look more feminine.
Two things my husband has never seen, my arm hairs and my natural hair color.
