Shaving rash, Ingrown hairs, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) side effect – unwanted hair growth

Shaving rash, also known as Folliculitis Barbae, is very often seen on the beard area, but it can also happen on other body areas where the hair is shaved, waxed or plucked.

Ingrown hairs can often curl into the skin instead of growing straight out the follicle. And that can cause inflammation, itchiness, redness and sometimes infection which can be painful and unsightly. Polycystic

Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) While this condition affects many women, the cause is unknown. The ovaries are affected and become enlarged with fluid filled follicles surrounding the eggs. Due to a high amount of the hormone Androgen, unwanted facial and body hair can be experienced as well as irregular periods. Some women may have only one of the symptoms while others can have all of them.
