Girls, I'm 21 yo and still in the closet as a gay guy, mostly because I'm still in university and living with my christian parents. I feel like I'd really be myself if I were a girl, it's been this way since I can remember, like, when I was a little kid. Been hiding it till now but the girl inside me is screaming to come out. I've been struggling with depression, panic attacks and anxiety and I think it's all related to my hidden gender identity. Anyway, it's been two weeks since I started taking finasteride because of my hair loss (my forehead is quickly getting bigger and it makes me look awful). I'm what gays would call a 'bear', I have lots of body hair, everywhere you can imagine (ugh) and I hate it. Question is, when you start HRT does it make the body hair stop growing? Waxing is too painful and I really can't afford laser treatment in my country (I live in Brazil). I'm so scared that I have to wait too much to finally start being myself that till then I'll lose the hair in my head and I don't wanna be a gross hairy girl who has thick black hair even in her back
