Thinning pubic hair

I don't know if I posted to the right section or not, but am curious...it seems like the hair around my scrotum is getting mighty thin compared to where is was even 10 years ago, to say nothing of how bushy it was at 16. Is this a normal thing for older males (42 here)? Just curious - didn't know if it meant something was wrong down there or elsewhere.

Nope, no need to worry, as we age most of us will have a gradual loss of hair, whether it be facial, leg, chest, head or pubic.

for example, when I was 16 and up until I was about 35 or so, I had to shave my legs and what not everyday. The hair was black and thick, also hard enough to sand wood, lol.

these days however, the hair is thinner, softer, lighter and grows a lot slower than when I was younger. It's a hormonal thing, but I assure you, quite normal.

Have no fear, Nurse Mashie is here, lol. Just kidding.

Good question DrBob and good answer Mash. Getting older is now looking much better....well maybe not all of it.

Thanks, nurse Mashie, for your answer. It seriously got rid of a lot of concern. I don't know why the thought crossed my mind exactly, I just happened to realize this the other day and wondered what was going on.

At 42, I realize I'm only at the tip of the iceberg of growing old. However, since adding bifocals this year (I've always worn glasses, since about age 6), I have really decided that it's for the birds. Actually I kind of like the bifocals - don't know why but I see better out of them than any pair of glasses I've had in the last 10 years! 😃 :-\

DrBob You might just try shaving it all off and see how you like it. I love it that way, so does my lady friend.
