A member asked:
I'm curious to know if shaving the vaginal region can cause a decrease in pubic hair growth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If you are using very harsh depilatories (hair removal creams), or hair removal with tapes, then the underlying hair follicles can be damaged causing hair pubic hair reduction.
