how to remove moustache for females naturally - #43508
I am really struggling with this unwanted moustache situation — it’s been bothering me for a while now. I mean, I've tried everything, like waxing and threading, but it’s sooo painful and honestly, I don’t love the idea of all that for something that feels so temporary! I’ve read a bit about how to remove moustache for females naturally, but I don’t know what works. Like, can turmeric and gram flour really help? Last week, I mixed up some turmeric paste, but, ugh, I think I put too much turmeric or something, cause it left a nasty stain on my skin for days. I was kinda embarrassed to go to work like that! And then my friend told me about using sugar and lemon combo, but it seems like a chore, too! It’s like, who has the time, right? Do these natural methods really work in the long run? I’m hoping to find something effective that wouldn’t be too harsh on my skin. I also noticed that my moustache seems to get darker and thicker sometimes! Like, does hormonal imbalance play a part in all this? I just want a simple solution, ya know? Any advice on how to remove moustache for females naturally would be sooo appreciated!

Doctors' responses
Unwanted facial hair growth in women can indeed be frustrating, and while there are various natural methods suggested in Ayurveda, their effectiveness can vary. You mentioned turmeric and gram flour; yes, these two are traditionally used to help with hair growth reduction. When mixing a paste, combine equal parts of turmeric and gram flour with enough water or milk to make a thick paste. Apply it to the affected area, and let it dry before gently rubbing it off in the opposite direction of hair growth. It may require consistent application over weeks to see gradual results, but it can be effective over time.
As you experienced some staining with turmeric, ensure you’re using a pinch or two – too much can indeed lead to that yellowish skin tint. Mixing it with yogurt instead of water might help to prevent stains and soothe the skin.
The sugar and lemon method works more like a natural epilator. Warm this mixture slightly (not too hot!) to make it paste-like consistency, and apply while still warm. Once it cools down, pull it off quickly. This can be effective but might require more effort to prepare than turmeric and gram flour.
Regarding hormonal imbalance, yes, it may contribute to excess hair growth. Regular intake of spearmint tea is known to help manage androgens that could be contributing to your situation. Besides, maintaining a balanced diet that supports healthy hormonal function is beneficial. Foods high in phytonutrients like flaxseeds and nuts can be useful.
If the hair growth persists or you notice changes in your body hair pattern, it might be wise to consult a physician to rule out conditions such as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), which can cause such symptoms.
Remember, these methods need patience, and results are gradual. Their natural approach ensures reduced side effects, but if a more immediate solution is required, considering professional advice for balanced intervention might be most effective.
