All About Pubic Hair

Pubic hair is the hair that grows in the genital area of ​​the front, the crotch, and sometimes the upper inside of the leg. These areas of the body form the pubic area. In both men and women, pubic hair is usually darker and rougher than scalp hair. However, the pubic hair may be sparse or thin. The texture of the pubic hair varies from tight curls to completely straight. The pubic hair pattern varies depending on race and ethnicity.

How do male and female pubic hair develop?

Pubic hair develops in men and women during adolescence, a transition from childhood to adulthood. The onset of pubic hair is called the “pubic bone”. Before the onset of puberty, both boys and girls have very thin soft hairs in the genital area. However, at the beginning of puberty, the body begins to produce elevated levels of sex hormones known as androgens. For this reason, the skin in the genital area begins to produce hair that is fast growing, thick, rough and often curled.

In boys, some sparse pubic hair first appears on the top of the scrotum or penis. Within a year, the pubic hair around the base of the penis becomes denser. In 3-4 years, the hair fills the pubic area and becomes much darker. Genital hair develops toward the navel from near the thigh to the navel by the end of the fifth year.

In most girls, genital hair first appears along the edge of the labia and spreads forward in the next two years. In three years in puberty [the beginning of menstruation for most girls of this period], the pubic triangle is filled with hair densely. Two more years later, these hairs develop near the thighs, sometimes in small amounts from the abdominal line toward the navel.
