    What can I do to rid the male hormones in my body?
    Is there an over the counter pill to lower the male hormones in a female body?

    Your body needs certain levels of certain hormones. You really need to talk to your doctor if you think you want to change your hormonal levels. That is not something you can or should do without a doctor and prescriptions.

    Oh... wow... I thought there was something over the counter for that. I feel like I have too many male hormones... Don't laugh but I have hair growing on my chest and hair on my legs! LOL.. So embarrassing!

    How old are you? And how much hair? Hair on your legs is totally normal. In many cultures it just doesn't seem like it because women spend so much time and effort on hair removal-shaving, waxing, etc.

    Women & men share different levels of the same hormones. Like JustCurious said, its best to consult a doctor.

    Hormones are tricky business and trying OTC products could make things worse.

    LOL... I understand hair on the legs is normal but chest hair?

    Well, what do you mean by chest hair? Is this like a few stray strands? Or like a full chest of hair? Again, if you talk with your doctor and they think taking pills for your hormones, then it might be OK. Or it might be easier to just have it waxed.

    A few strands but enough to be seen by another person. LOL this is embarrassingly funny.

    A few strands isn't a big deal. It might be easier just to pluck them if it's just a few.

    Is it true that the hair takes longers to grow back when plucked or waxed?

    In my experience it seems to be true
