How much hair down there is normal?

I know that (most) women and girls have hair on that "triangle" below your hips. But I also have hair that covers my vagina and the other parts between my legs. I really don't know if this is normal or not.

 

Yes, babe, hair down there that covers everything is totally normal. While every girl is different when it comes to how much hair she has (and what sort of hair it is), having hair in that triangular area below your hips, around your vagina and inside the outer lips, along the tops of your thighs and even toward your bum is typical. So don’t fret!

Just because you shave down there doesnt mean you are having sex. So many of my friends shave and I know some of them arent sexually active but I have wondered when I start going to the gyno what the doctor will think when they see I am shaved down there. Maybe they will think I am doing things with guys because its shaved but I think so many of us shave down there that it doesnt mean anything.

I have a doctor's appointment coming up for a check-up and I was wondering, after your period, do they really have to check "down there"? I'm asking because I really have never felt comfortable with them doing that and since I've already got my period, I just wanted to know. Thanks!




Hey girl, nope, they don't. That kind of doctor actually won't check down there. A gynecologist will, and you won't go to one until you're much older.

every girl at my school shaves down there and some how it got out that i dont, everyone made fun of me so i put it out there that i do, my mom doesnt so i dont know if i should and i live with my dad so im scared to shave and have him find hair in the drain. my friend knows and says i shouldn't worry about it since i dont have sex but im still concerned.
