    Hair around the nipples on the breast
    Hi,

    I am 27 and I have hair grown on my nipples, I use razor to remove these hair but I feel the growth have become even more. What is the cause of these hairs and can they be removed.

    Join the club! I also have hair 'there' and I used to be very embarrassed about it. The cause? I don't know. I have a lot of hair everywhere, I guess it's genetic because my mum had hair there too. But please don't shave. Shaving makes the hair grow back stronger (people say it doesn't, but it definitely does to my hair!! ), plus, u need to do it very often. The only real solution to this problem is electrolysis, a permanent hair removal technique. It hurts, but it WORKS. It's also quite expensive, but it's worth it. I did it for 6 months, but now I've moved to a different country so I just cut them off as closer to the root as possible. This might be another solution for you.

    Ok.. Thanks for your answer. You are right shaving has to be done quite often and it makes the growth thicker.

    Will it in any way affect my sexual life after my marriage if I do not go to remove this by some permanent method.

    What do you mean? That your future husband will notice it? Look, yes it's not the most attractive thing, but what can you do. If your guy loves you, I'm sure a few hair there won't make him love you less. The reason I do it is because it makes ME feel more attractive. So since it seems to bother you, just get it removed.

    Many women will have some hairs grow around their nipples. This is due to hormones. Some women won't have them while they are younger, but will start to have growth as they get older as hormones start to change.

    Some women will see a dermatologist, as fisk mentioned, for permanent removal... can take a number of visits, some prefer to shave, some prefer to tweeze them, and others are not bothered by them and leave them alone.

    If you remove them on a regular basis, your husband will not likely even notice. Again, as fisk said, it shouldn't really matter to him anyway.

    Thanks Doulal. AM happy that it won't bother much in the future life... yes you are right, tweezing it on daily basis will not let my husband notice... so that's OK.

    Thanks again for your inputs..
