See title. I’m on HRT for over 11 months now, thoroughly enjoying it. I’ve a hunch the dose is a bit low, though. I get androgen blockers every 2-3 months, my last one was one month ago.

Normally my arm hairs aren’t very visible, so I didn’t have much dysphoria from that. However, recently my arm hair seems to be growing a lot and thicker, and I’m concerned. Is this normal?

My mum doesn’t really have a lot of arm hair, nor do other gals in my family.

    I’ve met plenty of cis women with hairy arms. Some wax or shave it off, some don’t. Just personal preference. If you want rid of it and have the cash a decent IPL machine will have decent results. I have this one.

    Edit: It works as long as the hair is darker than the skin, if you have dark skin or light blonde hair it won’t do much.
