Howdy!
I have compounded Cushing's, from being on steroids for over 20 years, but I've been off steroids since 1995, and my peach fuzz is just as thick as it has always been. Just
DON'T PLUCK OR SHAVE!!!! The sides of my face have stayed
soft and light, but my "mustache" and hair on my chin and neck, below my chin have turned dark and stiff.

I hope it all goes well for you.

Love and Hugs,
Lori
