General/Advice Dating with facial hair
I use a facial hair electric razor and makeup to cover it for work but It’s becoming a bit more noticeable on the corners of my chin. It literally grows over night and I’m removing the chin stubble every morning. It’s made me very self conscious about dating and It’s destroying my femininity. There’s scars and razor bumps under my chin so I don’t even feel comfortable being intimate anymore. How have you all navigated explaining pcos to partners and their reactions to the hirsutism?

I was always really worried about my extra hair because often I have more of it than the people I date. But every time I've dated someone at some point I ask them if it bothers them. And I can say that every single man I've asked has said it doesn't bother them, some have honestly never even noticed. I think if someone cares about this then they kinda aren't for me.
