A member asked:

Why is my pubic hair not growing in after having shaved it i am 38?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pubic hair: Occasionally hair shaved in certain areas of the body doesn't grow back. Testosterone deficiency can prevent pubic hair from growing back, but this shouldn't pertain to you. If you have further concerns about hair problems, consult a dermatologist.
