Q: is body hair normal for a female? will it reduce with the growing age or remains same?

: Body hair depends on many things. Ethnicity, hereditary and hormonal balance. If it is similar to your mother or female siblings it is O.K. But if it is excessive pl see your MD. It will not reduce with age.
