First off here are my questions first then my story…
- Does it usually take this long?
- How much Longer?
- Is there anything else I can do in conjunction with electrolysis to speed it up?
- Should I find a new electrologist?
I am 32 years old around 18 a few thick black hairs started to pop up on my chin. So I started plucking, waxing, pluckin waxing,plucking (you get it!) etc for 11 years. Feb of 2007 I finally contacted a electrologist I told her it wasn’t that bad so she told me not to pluck or wax till I went to see her a week later. OMG I could not believe how much thick black hair I had. She said the hair was very stubborn and it would be a journey so I was in it for the long hall. Finally after 2 years of seeing her (yes the amount of hair and thickness of hair decreased a lot I thought it would be gone. Now during all this I kept talking to my Dr. about it and she acted like I was being vain and never saw it as a issue. So 2 yeasr after electrolysis I went back to my Dr. and demanded she made this an issue. She sent me to one of her colegues (I thought I was going to an endocrinologist) but she sent me to a fertility specialist. So I just went with it he did blood work (not to extensive and ultra sound of my ovaries) blood work fine but ovaries I guess showed I had PCOS. All he cared about was getting me pregnant rather dealing with the issue I was there for. So now I am 3 years into it (1/2 hr each week with total clearance). With still alot of dark black hairs on my face(it growing in new places now lip, back, feet, nipples). THe day after my sessin with her new hairs are already popping out. Could someone please give some advise, encouragement …PLEASE HELP!! Sorry it’s sooooooo long!
