I've noticed in the past month or so that my face/chest/leg/underarm hair has been growing faster than usual.   I really can't tell you the type of hair but I noticed that it appears darker than it has been usually. 

My last labs in sept were T 9.2 and E 252.  We did change E brands, but they're the exact same.  Vivelle-Dot.  One was by Sandoz? and this one is purple and white and actually says Vivelle-Dot. 

Friday will be 7months.  I am not taking P but just Spiro and E patches.    Should I be worried about this slight change?

Have you been eating differently? Are you eating more protein, specifically organ meats?

Your T and E numbers look fine to me but I am not a doctor.

Hmm.  I know I have been eating like crap over the past month.  Maybe that has something to do with it.

Are you located in the northern hemisphere?

I know for me when winter is on it's way in my body hair seems to kick into a higher gear.  It's still nowhere near pre-HRT amounts but it does increase.

I had said something about it last time I got my eyebrows waxed to the lady who does mine and she said that happens to everyone this time of year. 

Just a guess but it could be nothing more than a change of the seasons....  :)

I get more body hair growth in summer, something to do with increased sun exposure...on nail growth as well.
I am not a medical doctor, nor a scientist - opinions expressed by me on the subject of HRT are merely based on my own review of some of the scientific literature over the last decade or so, on anecdotal evidence from women in various discussion forums that I have come across, and my personal experience

On HRT since early 2004
Post-op since late 2005
