Pubic hair thinning usually happens with age, starting around menopause for women, but hormones play a huge role. Since I have PCOS, I know how hormonal imbalances can cause hair thinning in unexpected places even earlier. If it is happening suddenly, it is best to ask a doctor to check your thyroid and hormone levels.
While it typically happens in older age, around 60 or 70 due to natural hormonal decline, poor circulation from uncontrolled diabetes can also affect body hair growth. Keeping your blood sugar in check is crucial for overall tissue and hair health.
According to most medical trackers, significant thinning of pubic and body hair usually starts after the age of 50 or 60 due to falling androgen levels. If you are much younger and tracking sudden hair loss, it might be worth logging it and speaking to an endocrinologist.
Once you cross 50, your body decides to lose hair where you want it (on your head) and keep it where you don't! Thinning of body and pubic hair is just a standard part of getting older. Don't worry, it's just nature doing its thing.
