Hairy Arms: Development of arm (androgen) hair in late adolescents is a sign of secondary sexual character and is due to increased levels of male sex hormone or androgen. Such a character may be familial. Before u get used to the hair on your arms, u may consider wearing longer sleeves! No need to be ashamed of your natural body, as many men are naturally hairy than others. There r treatment options to remove
