Facial & Body Hair??



Recommended Posts

I have PCOS, too! It totally sucks! I do have to admit, however, that I did enjoy not having periods..... I eventually had to have a hysterectomy, so I guess I still don't have them. :P I have had facial hair since highschool. I used to bleach the hair, then I started to pluck the hair because bleach wasn't enough, then I began to use cream hair remover because the hair was too coarse for the hair remover cream. Now that I am in my 30's the hair is dark and nasty just like "man" whiskers. :blink: I actually have razors all over the place. In the bathroom, in my purse, in my car.... because the !@#$ grows back in less than 24 hours!! :( I have had a few lazer hair treatments over the last year. I still need to have a few more to get it all, I think. I found that the procedure was painful, but not so much so that I won't go back for more. Once you get a look at yourself without the little stubble things that you can see under your skin (even after shaving)..... you realize that you would go back even if it DID hurt really bad!!! At any rate, I was really hoping that someone would say that the Hair growth gets better. I can see that the only person who stopped having hair growth doesn't have PCOS. That's not what I was hoping to hear....... -_- Oh well....

It does look like several of you have lost some weight! How has that been for people?? Difficult? Easy? Neutral? Just curious.....

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
