Does getting facial hair mean that a growth spurt is coming?

I have a lot of facial hair and I shave 3 times a week. I am 14 years 10 months old 5'41/2. My dad is like 5'6 and my mom is 5'0. Does this mean I will get a growth spurt soon? In the past 10 months I have only grown 1/2 an inch. Why am I not growing?

No, facial hair comes from testosterone and growth comes from HGH.

Bonjour! probably not a growth spurt.....but puberty...unless u propbably got it already....it really just means that you r growing...not to a growth spurt though



Does getting facial hair mean that a growth spurt is coming?

well most men stop growing in their twenties so sorry but you still have some time to wait. Girls go through puberty earlier and much quicker where as the boys do it gradually and over alot of years.Hang in there.



Does getting facial hair mean that a growth spurt is coming?

If you are a female, I think it means that menopause has arrived. I have seen a lot of hairy short guys in my life, and I just read an answer that said the more you shave the longer, thicker and darker your hair will grow back, so I am at a loss. I do know enough from med school to tell you that you don't stop growing for at least another four years, so don't worry about it!

UH-oh....my son has grown past his growth spurt before having those tell-tale facial hair. He is now 16 and almost 6 ft tall...he began his growth spurt at the age of 13 and it slowly stopped at the age of 15..(at 5ft 10 inches tall)...now, he's having those little facial hair growing, he's 5ft 11.5inches at the age of 16



Does getting facial hair mean that a growth spurt is coming?

Facial hair and growth spurts are not directly related, they are just two results of the same thing: puberty.



Things happen at different times and rates for each person. At your age, I had begun experiencing several facets of puberty. My voice had already deepened significantly (it was the first thing to happen), and I had my first growth spurt, for example. However, I had very little hair to speak of except for what was on my scalp. Even now, at 21 1/2, I am only just beginning to grow arm, chest, and facial hair. It just happens to be the last thing to happen for me.



I had my last growth spurt almost five years ago, and stopped growing completely three years ago, so obviously, facial hair is a terrible indicator for growth spurts.



Does getting facial hair mean that a growth spurt is coming?

Growth spurts can happen any time during adolescence. The peach fuzz may or may not be related, but it's a good sign that you're developing at a normal pace. I didn't really spurt until I was 16. Be patient, but do realize that you're not going to be much taller than your dad, so don't expect to suddenly be a walk-on center!



Does getting facial hair mean that a growth spurt is coming?

yea, it means your on your way.dont worry,you will grow more.

Does excess facial hair growth have anything to do with me not getting pregnant?

Have been trying to get pregnant for 6 months now, periods are regular. Do you know of have you heard if unwanted facial hair has anything to do with to many male hormones maybe killing off the sperm??



Does excess facial hair growth have anything to do with me not getting pregnant?

I wouldn't say that the excess facial hair is the problem, but I know that unwanted facial is a sign of possibly PCOS, which I was diagnosed with in my late teens. The doctors have told me that women with PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) often have a difficult time getting pregnant.



I haven't tried to get pregnant myself, but you may want to do a bit of research on PCOS or talk to your doctor about any recent changes that you have had - such as the onset of unwanted facial hair. Hope this helps.



Does excess facial hair growth have anything to do with me not getting pregnant?

Excess facial hair is a sign of hormone imbalance. You should see your doctor.



Does excess facial hair growth have anything to do with me not getting pregnant?

Male hormones don't kill sperm. But, unwanted facial hair, greasy hair, oily skin and similar signs can be related to an excess of male hormones in your body. That might cause some trouble in trying to conceive, beacuse it can affect your period (even if it seems regular).



Fortunately, it's easy to solve: by taking female hormones, you can solve it.



Good Luck!



Does excess facial hair growth have anything to do with me not getting pregnant?

It sounds like your body isn't producing enough estrogen and too much testosterone, which could definately be why you aren't getting pregnant. However, I don't think the male hormones necessarily "kill off" the sperm....talk to your doc about it.....



Does excess facial hair growth have anything to do with me not getting pregnant?

The facial hair growth can be from many things - even heredity. There is a condition called PCOS, which has that as one of its symptoms, because of a hormonal imbalance, but that is often diagnosed for women with irregular periods, and other symptoms such as obesity, etc. You should check with your gynecologist, though, and have some hormone tests done.



It has nothing to do with your question about the sperm.



Six months isn't a very long time to be trying, so don't worry about that.



Does excess facial hair growth have anything to do with me not getting pregnant?

please see your doctor and ask to be tested for pcos. excessive hair, obesity, irregualr periods, and insulin resistance are the most common signs. you might want to take a look at soulcysters.com It was YEARS before I was diagnosed-largely in fact to the excessive hair. but having excessive hair does not mean you have too many male hormones which is killing the sperm. with pcos, cysts form on the ovaries which can lead to infertility. however, there are medications to help alleviate pcos and bring the possibility of a baby.



Best of luck

Does excess facial hair growth have anything to do with me not getting pregnant?

excess facial hair is often a tell tale sign of polycystic ovarian syndrome. Which can cause some woman to have a bit of trouble getting pregnant. If you are overweight you may want to really look into this because that is usally the cause.



Good luck.

Rogain Foam to help facial hair grow?

So, It takes quite a while for facial hair to grow in, and when it finally does its pretty patchy.. I'm talkin' millennium status.



So you see these Rogain foam commercials saying you can put this foam in your thinning hair, and your natural hair will start growing in all nice and full...



If I were to put this rogain foam on my face, like mustache area and whatnot, will it grow in super good ?



I'd do a handle bar mustache for sure.



Rogain Foam to help facial hair grow?

No, no, and no. Facial hair grows from skin, hair-hair grows from the scalp: different skin. Putting rogaine on your face will help just as much as putting your $$ in the trashcan.
