Hey Laura, How old are you and which country are you from? I only ask this because in the UK the NHS are amazing with helping with body hair. I'm 15, and from the age of about 11-12(can't quite remember exactly) i started getting more body hair than usual expecially on my stomach and back and probably more hair on my thighs compared to a lot of people. (Although a lot of girls i know from italy[like me] etc have more body hair.) The stomach hair was quite thick and dark and caused me A LOT of social issues and i hated showing my stomach. My back hair is less thick but it's still an issue. My face isn't bad in hair terms (touch wood) i only get a hair every now and again.(like most non cah people do!). When i was 13 my mum contacted my GP about the issue and she sent me to a dermotoligist who prescribed me a special cream, which was useless. That said, she then sent me to the laser clinic and although i was only 14 at the time the doctor decided to let me have it due to the fact it had made me depressed. After 6 treatments the hair on my stomach has gone amazingly fine compared to the way it was and has made me so confident. I've heard about spearmint tea helps lower testosterone levels too, which may prove to help body hair issues..But i'm not sure if it would reallly work. Hope that helped, If you have a problem about it talk to your doctor, they can be great sometimes:)
