Ok I am freaking out. I take birth control pills for hormone replacement therapy because my body cannot produce any hormone on its own.

Anyway 3-4 months after being on this, i’ve noticed a long line of hair growing from my ribs to the top of my belly button. Is this normal? I thought only guys got hair on their bellies!

It’s not noticable but to me it is! I can see it in the sunlight and it’s black.

What’s going on and should I call my doc?
I’m 23 by the way.

My Dr. recently diagnosed my hair thinning as loss of hormones following endometrial ablation. I have just started taking Necon 1/50 (birth control pills containing 1 mg of norenthidrone and 50 mcg of mestranol). I was curious as to approximately what the time line is for when I will stop seeing so much hair falling out.
I have regrowth. I also started using women’s Rogaine and
taking hair, skin and nail vitamins for about 2 weeks now.
The hair loss has been going on for approximately 2 months. I am 40 years old.
