Question 1

is it true that if i start shaving my peach fuzz now eventually some whiskers will grow?

Accepted Answer

Hormones: Your ? Didn't indicate ur gender, not that it matters much. If male, ur wiskers will form when androgenic hormones are made in enough quantity to chang ur fuzz.Shaving won't speed the process. If female, removal of the fuzz doesn't change your hormonal balance soo u don't invite wiskers by going slick.

Question 2

does your torso grow last? i'm a 20 year old male with long legs and arms but i have a very short torso. i'm just now getting beard peach fuzz.

Accepted Answer

See endocrinologist: Hi. What you describe is called eunuchoid proportions and is associated with hypogonadism. Are your penis and testes under developed? You will need to have testosterone, estradiol, LH, FSH, and karyotype checked for starters. Depending on diagnosis, there may be treatment. Good luck!

Question 3

does shaving peach fuzz actually make it grow back darker? im a girl.

Accepted Answer

Not really: It does not. What it can do is shape the ends of the hairs so that they are blunted and may catch more light, becoming more visible. But the hairs do not grow in darker, or thicker.

Question 4

little white hairs recently appearing like rough peach fuzz all over face .....could something internal cause this to happen ? skin on face all of sudden started to become extremely dry & rough like sand paper ?...now face is covered with little white fuz

Accepted Answer

New : New onset hair growth on the face can be a sign of a hormonal imbalance, medication reaction, a sign of porphyria cutanea tarda, and rarely, a sign of hidden malignancy. After a physical exam by a dermatologist to determine what kind of hair is forming, appropriate blood tests can be done.  Treatment for the excessive hair, and dry skin, would be based on the results of the examination, and blood tests.

Question 5

hi. i'm 26 had a total hysterectomy  in march leaving ovaries. now i've noticed i have thick "peach fuzz" even some longer hairs on my chin/neck. ?

Accepted Answer

Unrelated: If you left your ovaries then you did not experience any hormonal changes so a change in facial hair growth patterns will not be related.

Question 6

been on inplanon since july 2014 . i never had a period or spotting ..now 10 /4/15 i spotted two days now today its ligh peach again...

Accepted Answer

Normal: Irregular bleeding is very common with use of Implanon / Nexplanon.

Question 7

my 5 month old daughter is screaming for 4 hours now hasn't pooped in 2 days i have tried feeding her changing her prunes peaches she will not stop?

Accepted Answer

The first goal is: to find out why she is screaming.  If she has a fever this is worrisome, if her belly is tender when you gently push on it, this is worrisome too.  If irregular bowel habits this can be helped easily.  Most babies can have up to 7 or more bowel movements a day or as few as one every couple of days.  You can try glycerin suppositories to aid in passing stools but if hard stools see your doc soon.

Question 8

ive been taking xanax since i was in my mid 20s for severe panic disorder.  i was taking 3 blues(1mg) per day. at my age of 51 now, my doctor has weaned me to 2 peaches(.5mg) per day. wht other benzo shld i try for relief but still get off of xanax?

Accepted Answer

: Most Drs would NOT recommend another benzo if it can be avoided, though clonazepam is sometimes used to help patients wean off Xanax (alprazolam) because it is less habit forming.  I would recommend a less habit forming agent like hydroxyzine (prescription) or perhaps valerian, an herbal supplement that can help anxiety (over the counter), plus regular daytime aerobic exercise &amp; prayer/meditation

Question 9

is it true that if we make porridge from several fruits (apple, cherries, cherry plum, banana, medlar, peach) will lose their vitamins?

Accepted Answer

No- unless cooked: I don't know why anyone would think that or any possible way that would happen unless you mean a cooked porridge- cooking destroys vitamin c in particular.

Question 10

i have dark peach fuzz everywhere on my body(stomach,breasts back, etc) what can i do to remove it besides wax and shaving? my skin is very sensitive

Accepted Answer

See a dermatologist: Probably a normal variation. Any relatives with similar skin? After evaluation, you might be referred to endocrinology for exam and tests of hormones. Also be aware that some men will consider you especially desirable because of this trait.
