Shaving pubic hair, while popular for its aesthetic and perceived hygienic benefits, has numerous downsides. Research indicates that 60% of women who shave their pubic area experience complications like ingrown hairs. It can also increase the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Pubic hair serves crucial functions, including temperature regulation through sweat, acting as a barrier against bacteria and pathogens, and trapping pheromones that enhance attractiveness. Shaving can lead to genital warts and viral infections like Molluscum contagiosum. Furthermore, the process creates microscopic wounds, leading to irritated skin, abscesses, and boils. Given these issues, maintaining natural pubic hair might be the healthier choice.
