Help me...

Firstly I'm worried to be in any form of relationship, because of this but please can you tell me if either of these are normal:

1. I have hairy boobs, OK don't take this the wrong way (e.g imagining really HAIRY ones) but I mean like I have a few hairs all over my boobs

2. I have stretch marks on my boobs, I feel dirty and depressed by this

It is seriously effecting my love life as I don't want to be with anyone as I feel different and scared I might scare them away

Would this repulse lads?

Thanks

Pluck them hαirs out αnd put on some cocoα butter! Don't worry hun-- if your gonnα get it done with α guy your obviously going to wαnt to know him αnd see if he likes you for you-- other thαn thαt when your hαving α one night stαnd hunny be proud of your body there is nothing sexier thαn α confident womαn in bed--- or you could just dim the lights-hαhα..

No, I have the strech mark thing too (all over me not just my boobs) and I am very selfconscience about it. Hair is normal, we have it all over our bodies its just lighter and less coarse in some places. My boyfriend loves me just the way I am, he isn't bothered at all by it. Neither would a guy that likes/loves you for you. Don't be depressed, I know it's hard not to. The strech marks are just from fast development and your skin has less elasticity in it. GOOD LUCK!

I like Sarai's approach - don't let this affect your own self confidence. If you really want to address this medically, then see an endocrinologist. Sometimes there is a hormone imbalance - and it can be treated. If you do not wish to go that way, consider waxing - lasts 4-6 weeks and it can be done at home. There are different kinds of kits at drugstores and even Wal-Mart.

Whatevr you feel about yourself, feeling dirty and depressed should not be any of those feelings. You are not the only one - truly not the only one - who has experienced this. About the stretch marks - you can see a dermatologist who can prescribe a cream. A common cream prescribed is Retin-A. More expensive procedures include laser surgery and microdermabrasion. Often though insurances do not cover the latter two.

You just need to know that part of how you look is due to heredity, so there may be other women in your family who have experienced the same. Can you ask one of them, or would that be too embarrassing for you? I would understand if it was.

Hoping you can accept yourself just as you are - because every woman is beautiful. We can work out, we can diet, we can do many things to alter our body, but if we do not see ourselves in a positive way, we will translate that to others. Take care and best of everything to you.

I wouldn't suggest plucking the hairs... that sounds very OUCH! But Sara and the others are right. Don't let it affect you, because stretch marks and hair are normal. What Jonjon said is right too, stretch marks come from growing too quickly.

And hey, my boyfriend has stretch marks on his , but I still love him. (PS... his nipples are more hairy than my armpits :P )

Thanks for your help guys, I don't think I could go through with the laser treatment as I do not have the money, but I may go down to th shops and have a look at the creams, but deep down I think I know they don't really work! I have also joined a gym, in the hope that if I lose weight they may shrink, but I need to be careful as I am by no means fat! I'm in the normal range on BMI and I wear 10/12 uk size clothes, so I need to be careful I do not lose too much! But does anyone know if losing weight can help reduce them? Even if I don't have much to lose?

I really know how you feel I have hairy boobs too.
I told my mum when I was younger and she said they will fall off.
Well... she was wrong.
They just grew longer.
Its pretty depresing.
Its not a good feeling to look at the miror and have hair on your boobs.
That's why I searched Google to see if anyone els has the same problem.
And I found you.
So just so you'll know.
Your not the only one.
Cheers.

All women have faintly coloured hair on their boobs its natural. As for the stretch marks I have them on my boobs and thighs.
You just have to llearn to love yourself enough to not be self conscious. You may hate how you look but I guarantee some guy out there will love how you look!

I hope I have helped.

I started getting stretch marks on my boobs in my teens. Now I have them all over! Depillatory and waxing are options for the hair - don't let it bother you.

Find a pretty bra that makes you feel good then you'll feel better about your "girls."

Ladies, lidies -- relax -- us guys just like BOOBS, some of us like little ones, some biggens -- but none of us are all that picky about BOOBS -- Now dagnabit you got me thinking about boobs lol

I've only had my stretch marks for half a year, I haven't been using any cream and I personally don't care if anyone think I have some weird disease because if you've never had even a single stretch mark then you aren't a woman (or a very lucky one depending on how you look at it). Don't let them take over your life, guys don't care.
