Hey girls! Baby trans here with some questions about body hair
So, my egg finally cracked a few weeks ago. And while generally dysphoria isn't terrible for me at the moment, one thing that is really making me uncomfortable is my body hair. I've always been pretty hairy, so I bought an epilator a while ago, and while I'm really happy with it for my legs (smooth legs are aweeesome!), I'm having a hard time on my belly and chest. There's just so much and it regrows so quickly, and with how sensitive these areas are, I'm having a hard time keeping up.
Do you have any other tips or ideas, or do I just have to power through? I've heard it gets better if you do it often, but I can't feel much of a difference yet
And how are your experiences with body hair on HRT? I'm not on E yet, but would you say it gets better?
Thanks :3
HRT did make my body hair thinner and lighter, and I suppose it takes a little longer to grow back. Kind of a "your mileage may vary" thing but I do personally find things easier to cope with, especially facial hair which is barely visible for me now even if I don't shave for a week or so.
How long have you been on HRT?
Not them, and not myself, but my sister has been on HRT for less than a year and she doesn't even grow facial hair anymore. Can barely even tell she's MTF with the family resemblance either. We used to look nearly identical and now she really looks like a woman.
4 months, but I personally started seeing hair growth changes pretty quickly, probably in the first few weeks.
