Vaginal hair inside labia

Hi everybody,

I didn't get to see the female gp cause she phoned in sick would you believe!!! So, I've got to make another appointment to see a female doc, but I will def post the result of my visit on here when it happens - sorry!!!

I am glad you said something  :-)  I'm 17 and thought i was the only one in the world with this problem, i just started going to a gyno doctor a few months ago and was afraid to say anyhting to her cus i thought it was going to be something i couldnt fix. i never had the guts to say anything to my mum cus i was to self conscious about it, but the answers you've recieved definitely give me the bit of advise i needed to do something about it. thank you for saying what i was too afraid to ask, feels good to not be the only one :)

How good it is too here some one complain like i do, mine hasnt gotten that bad yet but im 17 and for a couple years now i have been feel like a freak, thinking that it wasnt normal for me to have, but hearing your long rant about how much tweezing sucks, in which i know.. i think i am going to finally consult my mother and see how it goes, hopefully she understands and helps me :) thank you for making me finally understand im not the only one in the world  

You're all completely normal. While it my be annoying, uncomfortable or painful, the fact that you have it is not a "problem" Hair growing from the inner labia, up to and including the clitoral hood, is normal and ranges from thick and coarse to thin and soft, black to blonde to gray.
However, I'd like to point out that public hair grows in the public region. Hair on your belly is belly hair, hair on your breast, including the aereola, is breast hair, etc.

It is normal

I am 14 years old and have had pubic hair since before I even started my period...I don't feel comfortable asking my mom about pubic hair so I tried google, which brought me here...for 2 1/2 years now I have had pubic hair, and a lot of it...I matured later than many of my friends with everything (starting menstrual cycle, breast growth, etc.)...but not pubic hair, I know this because one of my close friends told me she found a hair "down their" for the first time in 7th grade...I didn't know how to respond to her because I have had hair there since 5th grade...I didn't feel like a normal girl going through the stages of puberty because the time order was flipped, but now tha I am a teenager in high school (still growing in some ways ex: breasts...or I hope still growing lol) I feel like my problem with pubic hair is no different than any other teenager girl...I have many sisters and my 17 year old sister informed me when I was in 6th grade that I don't know how bad it will be when my hair starts growing down there, but I did know because a year before that is when I started growing it...but now that my friends face the same problems like having to take a last minute shower before jumping in the pool I realized that I am just where I need to be...but even though all my friends have it too I still feel like I have to try harder to stay shaved...I am going to be turning 15 in August and my boyfriend is 17 and will be turning 18 a month after my birthday, I believe in abstinence but sometimes I think that I am going to do more with him than keeping my clothes on even though I trust myself too keep my clothes on and I know that he wouldn't let me make a decision like that without thinking it through sense we are both virgins and Christian so we are going to wait until marriage, either to have sex with each other if we are in love or someone else if we aren't meant to be together...I know I am going to wait to lose my virginity when I get married because that is what marrage is for, to have children and sex was made to reproduce so as long as I think I am too young to have a child I won't have sex...thank you all for listening and thanks for sharing because it really made me know that it is normal.

Oh thank god.I thought I was a freak. Being 17 and having hair inside my labia and whatnot scared the heck out of me but I was to embarrassed to talk to anyone about it.I could cry of joy from being so relieved that its normal. thank you.

it is just normal having a pubic hair

No you're not ! Thats exactly how I am and im so worried that I have that thing too !

Thank god I now know I'm not the only one. Sadly, i'm 13 and already have hair. I was so relieved to find out I wasnt alone. I honestly dont know if that age is too young, but whatever, it is what it is. I'm glad to know its normal. Thanks guys :)

When I said have hair, obviously I have hair, but like, more around the other areas that just makes me awkward even typing. So like, yea.

I've been having a case of pubic hair going into my vagina. I have found this three times so far.

Ladies, I am a Beauty Therapist and honestly I have the same problem. Do not be worried it is a hundred percent natural, it is a sign of maturity and trust me dont be so worried! The best course of action  is waxing, it reduces the hair over time (meaning not all of it grows back during a few treatments) and they offer hot wax treatments which is much more comfortable. Dont be affraid to go into a Beauty palour/salon/clinic and ask for intermate waxing prices at the end of the day 9.99% of the time it will be another woman who has the same treatment as what you are asking for, trust me I do. We all are different, but dont think you are a freak for something that is completely natural. If you are worried about the waxing pain, you will get used to it and think of it this way it is every 4-6 weeks, after the first rip off of the wax strip, you know if you can cope. I mean it's nothing compared to child birth :D

Actually, I didn't have noticeable hair on inside of the labia. But, I shaved super close to it, possibly shaving off small hairs there, and it got much much worse when it grew back. Also, I gained more hair around the butt area. So, I'm tired of people saying that shaving won't make it worse because it will.

The hair that has grown inside my vagina is affecting my sex life.  It rubs him raw.  I am completely distraut about this and don't know what to do.  I try shaving but this really only makes it worse because it grows back fast and thicker.  There has to be an answer to this problem.  Help?  Any suggestions?  This is a huge problem.
