I'm double posting this just because I figured that you ladies might have some answers too.
This is an embarassing question that I wouldn't DARE ask anyone IRL but if I can't ask you ladies then I figure the terrorists have won... KWIM?
Ever since I miscarried in May I have had a problem with growing an excessive amount of *ahem* random body hair. I know that's really nasty. It was NOT like this before and now I have to plan when I think J and I will be BD and *prep* before- hand. I even have to sneak into the bathroom while he's either sleeping or away. (I'm neurotic about him walking in on me with the tweezers) He said something to me about a moustache a few weeks ago in the car and I thought I was going to die. Up until that point I had thought it was just me blowing it out of proportion.
Is this just part of getting old or caused by wacky hormones after a m/c or should I be worried?
ETA: I don't think it's PCOS... doesn't that usually cause you to be overweight? I'm 5'2 and 108 lbs so I'm not sure if that's just one symptom but I thought it was worth mentioning.

Hey Megan,
You know I really don't know - I tried googling it and couldn't really find anything. I know our bodies get pretty messed up with a m/c so it wouldn't surprise me though. It might be something to ask your doctor about if you were going in - I don't know that I'd make an appt for it, but if you were there anyway...that sort of thing.

Well hair growth is triggered by hormones. Very well could or it could be just a coincidence it started after your MC? Before my 2DD I would only have to shave my underarms 3 times per week. Since after her I have to shave everyday. Strange isn't it. At your next gyn visit I'd ask about it.
