Patient's question:
My girlfriend's pubic hair is very dense, and she wants to shave it off. I'm wondering if there will be any discomfort if it's completely shaved off? Will it affect her physiology? Will it grow back denser? First follow-up question: Why is it denser than before?Doctor's answer:
Pubic hair is the second sexual characteristic of human development. Pubic hair is not useless; it grows to protect our bodies. Pubic hair can absorb sweat and mucus secreted in these areas and disperse them outward, which is beneficial to health. During sexual activity, it can also enhance the pleasure caused by friction in the external genital area. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to have a vaginal examination in the gynecology department of the hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary regulation in daily life, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoiding spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
