I have PCOS and have to pluck/shave my face EVERY day. I’m talking sideburns, cheeks, lip, chin, check, nose, forehead and brows. It’s totally embarrassing. I get ingrown hairs (worst thing ever for scarring) irritation and awful infections from it.
I spoke with my GP, they just gave me a random contraceptive pill. No referral to a specialist. No investigations. Nothing. I will never take a contraceptive pill again in my life! They’re the WORST for fucking your hormones up. I came off it completely around 5 years a go.
Also, I don’t know why I even bother removing the hair, because it just grows back overnight!
