Susan's Place Transgender Resources

It's something I've been wondering about. As you may or may not know, I'm still pre- everything, due to lack of access to medical intervention. But I haven't shaved my legs or my forearms since March(?) or something like that. My forearms are wicked hairy, even my upper arms are hairy. (Yeah, I used to shave them so I wouldn't be made fun of for being too hairy for a female.) But my legs, wow, not much at all. Someone would have to look very close to notice I haven't shaved my legs. I also have a weird pattern going on. There's a spot that has the most hair, which is around the tattoo on the front of my lower right leg. Other than that, the hair growth seems to only come on the right sides of both legs. And still, the hair on the left leg is so light or so little that it appears clean shaven. So, to sum it up, I only have about a 4-inch circle area of noticeable hair on my right leg. And, I know the majority of the world does not agree with me on the subject of body hair, but I have always liked really hairy guys. And so, for myself, I would like to be a really hairy guy once I would get to be on T, if that time ever comes. And I know it's about genetics, but there are no males in my family to gauge where I'd be with enough T in my system. I've never even seen a picture of my biological father, and I've heard he's only had daughters. So I come from a majorly female line on both sides. I hope that doesn't mean I'd be a hairless guy on T. :/

Really, it's likely that you'll have hair at least from the knee down, maybe some stomach and chest fuzz. The only thing is it might take you longer amount of time to figure out how much body hair you'll end up with. Also if you're in your teens, it's possible that you haven't grown the body hair a female puberty would produce.

It's hard to say.

I thought I would never get any hair based on my genetics.

From my mom's side, I already have more body and facial hair than my grandpa, uncle and male cousins and I've only been on T for about a year and a half. My grandpa commented on how he was surprised I could grow a beard since after 62 years he still can't really do it hahah.

But on my dad's side. well I don't know much of my biological dad and his family either except I did meet him once in his 30s and he was almost completely bald and clean shaven.

I am still getting more chest and stomach hair. So there is hope.

My lower legs only had a patch of hair on the shins pre T. Now I'm turning into a freakin' sheep dog.
Dad had the same shin growth pattern, but maybe longer. You might get lucky.

I would take a look at your genetics honestly. Look at how hairy your dad and the men on your mom's side are. My dad is hairy AF. Like, when I was a kid I thought he was a werewolf, it's god awful, haha. I'm hoping I don't get too hairy but I can totally deal, I don't mind legs and arms, it's back and chest :P

Really it's a mixed bag imo.  My dad is pretty hairless, my mother's side is pretty hairless.  My bro is a hairy beast and at 8 months on T I'm getting to the hairy beast side. 

Haha well I'm not in my teens, I'm almost 34. And that's what I mean about not having any genetics to take a guess from. There ARE NO men in my family, on either side. I've never seen a picture of my biological father, and I've heard he only had daughters. My mom has 1 sister, her mother had 6 sisters. It's a family FULL of women. No men. I have nothing to go by.

Hmm, I'm really hairy and I'm not on hormones. Not guy-level hairy, but still pretty hairy for a "female".
