Long, dark (but not coarse!) hairs on the back of my thighs.

Is this normal?? They’re about as long as a substantial pube, dark as all hell, but not coarse. Curly. And they grow from under my buttocks to above my knees; only on the back of thighs.

Anyone else?

Not got excessive hair growth anywhere else. I am overweight. Regular periods and no acne.

Loads of people have them. I think it’s part of the inexorable march of time. Like growing wiry hairs out of your chin.

Yes, me too. Think it's just age. So annoying!

Nothing unusual. You can shave your legs surely?

Yes I think it's pretty normal? I also started sprouting dark chin hairs in my 20s, which are so annoying. I don't have PCOS either (I was checked for it).

Me too. Just a few and just on the back above the knee. Weird!
