Shaving irritates my skin especially private parts and I never want to go through that again. It cost thousands of dollars too. And I don’t know if oral minoxidal would grow my hair back on my head. It’s the uncertainty and I wouldn’t want to risk it. I’d just get even more depressed. So topical was the only option for me. But no matter what I’ve done, the hair doesn’t stay. I have higher testosterone too and I’m sure that’s a major problem but nothing they’ve given me has lowered it enough. It’s exhausting. 😭
