Hair Loss, Skin Rash, and Excessive Pubic Hair Sweat
It appears no one has helped me with my current condition. Approximately two years ago, my hair started shedding drastically. My doctor thought it was my hormones because I just had a baby. A thyroid test has been performed but test came back normal. Now I have a rash on my leg which looks like I’ve been burned. The derm said it could be a fungal infection but the culture came back negative. I don’t have a clue what the problem is but very concerned as I haven’t gotten a diagnosis yet. My pubic hairs sweat just like underarm sweat. I have to use deodarant down below because its very strong smelling which its coming from the pubic hairs. Any suggestions on what other test could be performed?
Hair loss after having a baby is a common problem. Hair should grow back with time.
It is virtually impossible to tell you what your rash is without an examination. It sounds like you are doing the right thing by seeing a dermatologist.
With respect to your pubic hair and the strong smell, I would also suggest that you discuss this problem with your dermatologist. There are a number of conditions that will cause excessive sweating and a smell (frequently an over-growth of certain bacteria in the gland itself) can be caused by such bacterial growth. Like bad breath is a bacterial growth problem, our sweat glands ‘breathe’ (metaphorically speaking)
