A member asked:

I have excessive hair growth on my leg ? what can i do to slow or stop the leg hair growth ? please tell me some natural ways to stop it ?

Hair removal: Epilation and threading are the most common ways of dealing with unwanted hair. You can have a dermatologist also laser it off but it takes several sessions.
