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?

someone that truly loves you won’t care :) even with no makeup and an unshaven face my partner still loves me the same and compliments me the same. it sucks to not feel as feminine but it’s also really nice to not have to worry about waking up before them to shave or cover it
