Hairy Teenage girl
8 Comments

Im 18 and Ive got hair everywhere on my body and face! its not light, nor is it dark.
just in between.
its really bothering me.
I also have Acne on my back.
I went to my local doctors to check it
out and they say its normal
well i dont think it is.
Im asian.

its so depressing,
i cant wear pretty clothes when i go
out somewhere special cause the pretty clothes
show alot of skin, so i have to wear something like a t-shirt dress.

im afraid to show anyone my skin
thats why ive never had a bf before.
Not to be big headed, but im pretty
aswell, so many people always compliment me..


Does anyone know whats wrong with me?
any help is appreciated..

:(
Do you think it's normal?

I think what's "wrong" with you is that your hormones are kicking in as they do when you're a teen. ;)

I'm not sure what you mean by "everywhere" though, especially if you've been told by your doctor that it's normal... It sounds like you might be exaggerating, which is normal for a teenage and adult girl/woman.

Have you talked to a dermatologist? They can help you with your acne and they can also confirm if the body and facial hair you have is "normal" as well as recommend the best ways of dealing with it. :)

ew. that sucks ass. i had the same problem. the back acne may be a completely different thing, but sounds like two sypmtoms of pcos (polycystic ovarian syndrome). mention this to your doctor and get it checked out?

honestly, not something all that bad, but annoying in the present.

Everyone gets acne on their back at least once in their life. If it's REALLY serious, go to a doctor about it.. About the hair. You mean like EVERYWHERE? Chest, back, and everything? I'm not sure if that's normal, but you should just shave every day, and get lots and lots of waxing.
