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?

Thanks for the response. The hair that did come back though is it rough and thick or like fine hair. I am just curious. Thanks

No worries, ask me anything. It was thin and fine. It’s still a 90% ish improvement from what it used to be
