Personally, I've known several women who have more hair than they want. I don't think it is abnormal at all. It's actually quite common. There is a condition known as Hypertrichosis. This condition causes an abnormal development of hair on areas of the body that normally grow only light, superfluous hair. The best way to eliminate this hair is by laser. However, for laser treatment to be effective, the hair needs to have darker pigment than the skin. If your hair is not darker than your skin, electrolysis will work. In some cases this can be secondary to an endocrine disorder. Which should be discussed with your medical doctor. We are all unique. I hope this information helped.
