A member asked:
Why do hairs grow in genitals after puberty?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good Question: The hormonal changes that occur during puberty trigger pubertal hair to grow in places like the genital area, underarms and beard area. Why? Noone knows for sure why this hair is there at all.
