Do women have anal hair?

Mature women will also have anal hair, which is a normal physiological phenomenon. The so-called anal hair refers to the body hair around the anus. Both men and women will have such anal hair. The thickness of the anal hair is related to personal physique. There are also certain genetic reasons. Some women may have relatively dense anal hair, which can cause a lot of distress. You can use scissors to trim off part of it, but it is best not to remove it completely.

Anal hair growth is a physiological phenomenon

In fact, humans evolved from apes, which have hair all over their bodies, including around their anus. As humans evolve, their hair becomes thinner and thinner, but the hair around the anus has not yet evolved, that's all. The growth of hair on certain parts of the human body is mostly hereditary, and is also related to the local climate. Generally speaking, people in hot weather have less or finer hair, and the opposite is true in cold weather, but this is not absolute. In addition, the growth of pubic hair is closely related to the secretion of the human body. If more hormones are secreted, the human body will naturally grow hair. Generally speaking, adults all have long hair, it’s just a matter of how much. With evolution, human body hair has become increasingly sparse. Anal hair, like wisdom teeth and appendix, is a vestigial organ of humans.

Function of anal hair

Anal hair can keep the anus ventilated and can also exclude bacteria that are about to invade the anus, thus preventing bacterial infection. However, anal hair that is too dense may allow fecal bacteria to attach to the anal hair.

Precautions after shaving

You may feel itchy after shaving your anal hair, which is normal. You can apply some special oil or lotion to soothe your skin. And for a period of time after this, be sure to keep it extremely clean and thoroughly dry, as moisture can cause bacterial growth and itching.
