What causes pubic and leg hair in teen girl but no armpit hair?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A bit unusual : One of the first signs of puberty is sweating in the armpits and then growing hair there. It is possible that while in the shower she is shaving or using a depilatory cream. You can have her seen by a dermatologist.
