Possible: Everyone has hair follicles covering their entire body. Sometimes these hairs can be dark because of genetics, sometimes it indicates another issue such as PCOS. The diagnostic criteria for PCOS includes 2 out of 3 of the following: irregular periods, polycystic ovaries on ultrasound, and signs of increased testosterone (like increased dark hair) See a doctor if you think you might have PCOS
