Growth of hair on my body is continuous. I want to get rid of body hair. Earlier I had hair growing only on my hand and legs. Now they're growing on my shoulder, stomach , and all over the back of my hand . The length does not stop , they're growing very slowly and during summer I swear horribly. I am hesitant in wearing short sleeve t shirts and shirts.
